Traffic Pattern
•
The following pageant configuration was used in bi-directional way for continuous burst on traffic
streams:
packet length - 300 bytes and 1400 bytes:
–
For 300 bytes data traffic from pageant, the following rates were used:
350 for 1 Mbps; 700 for 2 Mbps; 1750 for 5 Mbps; and 3500 for 10 Mbps
–
For 1400 bytes data traffic from pageant, the following rates were used:
150 for 1 Mbps; 300 for 2 Mbps; 750 for 5 Mbps; and 1500 for 10 Mbps
•
IXIA was used for pumping UDP bi-directional unicast streams for simulating racing condition.
•
Average latency is calculated based on two to three minutes of traffic from IXIA; Latency might
differ based on the drop rate of data traffic.
•
1500 bytes (data) was not used due to ATM cell conversion overhead.
•
64B frame size IXIA traffic streams includes CRC.
