To Simulate Traffic from the Traffic Generator

Use the Hexadecimal to ASCII conversion table when editing PDUs and
transmitting byte values. See “Hexadecimal to ASCII Conversion” on
page A-2.

Note

If you select single cells, when you click the Transmit On button a Transmit button

appears. Click the Transmit button to transmit a single cell.

Edit the encode
options for each
channel if required.

1

Select the
channels on
which you want
to transmit data.
Channel 0 is the
foreground
channel, and
channels 1—10
are background
channels.

2

Enter the VPI/VCI
for each channel.

5

Select to transmit data
continuously or as single
cells for the foreground
channel.

4

Set the traffic profile
and bandwidth for the
foreground channel.

6

Set the bandwidth for
