Frame Loss Configuration

Frame Loss Configuration

The objective of this test is to find the percentage of frames that are lost
due to lack of resources. Starting at the specified maximum rate
(Maximum Rate), the test is performed for a specific frame size and for the
specified duration (Test Time). The test is repeated by decreasing the
throughput by 10%, then the test is repeated again until there are two
successive trials in which no frames are lost. The test is performed for each
defined frame size.
