or AU-3 level depending on the interface being SONET or SDH. At the
low order path level, the data path not involved in the data path
defined in the test case are filled with a background traffic equivalent
to the VT Group (VTG) or Tributary Unit Group (TUG) type defined by
the traffic selected in the data path. Further, the remaining VTG or TUG
within the high order path, selected in the test case, are respectively
filled with traffic of equivalent rate for SONET and SDH data paths.
