Throughput Configuration

Throughput Configuration

The objective of this test is to find the throughput of the device under test
for which there is no frame loss. Starting at the specified maximum rate
(Maximum Rate), the rate converges towards the highest throughput
without frame loss with the test having a predefined duration (Test Time).
The search is done with a halving/doubling method until a final value is
reached. The throughput measurement is validated the number of times
specified (Nb. of Validations). The Accuracy (Frames) settings specify
how precise that result must be. The test is performed for each defined
frame size.

Note: Throughput must be enabled from Global Configuration on page 58.

³

Test Time (MM:SS): Enter the
Test Time value in seconds.
Possible values are 1 second to
30 minutes. The default setting is
1 second (00:01).

³

Accuracy: Enter the Accuracy
value as a percentage of the line
rate or in Mbps. The accuracy is
not based on the configured
Maximum Rate but on the
Ethernet line rate.
