15.3.1.2 Frames Settings
Frames tab:
User configures the following:
Preset Frames:
User selects from a list of recommended test frame sizes defined in RFC 2544:
Test frames are 64, 128, 256, 512, 1024, 1280, and 1518 bytes.
The default selected frames are 64 and 1518 bytes.
To select/deselect any of the recommended test frames, check the box to the right of the desired frame.
Note:
When VLAN tagging or MPLS tagging is enabled, the value in parentheses reflects the actual frame size
transmitted. For example one VLAN tag adds 4 bytes to the frame size, therefore a 64B frame becomes a 68 byte
frame.
Add frame:
The user can add two additional user configurable test frames of any size ranging from 64 bytes to 10000
bytes.
To add additional test frames, tap the
Add Frame
button.
Enter the frame size using the numeric keypad and click apply.
Press the back button to return to the frames screen.
The new custom frame size is displayed (it can be enabled or disabled as needed).

15.3.1.3 Threshold Settings
Threshold tab:
User enables or disables threshold settings for the throughput and latency tests.
When enabled, threshold settings can be configured for all of the test frames selected in the frame settings tab.
A Pass/Fail criteria will be applied when the threshold settings are enabled.
For example, if the throughput threshold value for a 64 byte frame is configured for 80%, then a Pass criteria is
assigned if the throughput rate is 80% or better.
The threshold values for Throughput and Latency can be customized per user requirements. Tap on the selected
value to edit.
