Throughput Testing
Throughput Applications Home
Select Throughput as the test type on the menu . Before you begin testing, make
sure the link is up .
To send loopback commands in a test, press the ' Loop Control ' ( ) button in the
Action Bar .
BERT Applications
Select BERT as the Test Type on the Signal tab.
Layer 1 BERT
Layer 1 testing is used for verifying the quality of the physical layer connection. Most
commonly, this is done for basic point-to-point fiber connections, whether over a
single fiber pair or through a DWDM network.
Layer 2 BERT
Run a BERT between two testers.
Layer 2 testing is often performed to verify the quality of service provided over an
Ethernet network. Unlike a Layer 1 BERT , the Layer 2 BERT generates valid MAC
frames so that the test traffic can traverse through bridges and switches.
Caution : If you are sending packets to your responder via a router or other device
with its own IP address, make sure to set the Dest MAC to the MAC address of the
router, NOT the responder. Otherwise, the router will likely discard the packets
(without ARP in use).If you are staying down at layer 2 (MAC) this does not apply. IP
works fine if all the devices are on the same local network segment; this is applies
when sending traffic off your local network segment.
