available with BERT and RFC 2544.
Stream Name: Indicates the stream name and is not editable. The
default stream names are: RFC 2544 Stream for RFC 2544 test, and
BERT Stream for BERT test.
Rate: Indicates the stream rate. The rate is calculated according to the
configured traffic shaping (from Transmit Mode and TX Rate fields on
page 213).

stream will be generated only when the test is started.
Unit choices are %, bps, Kbps, Mbps, Gbps, Bps, KBps, MBps, and
GBps. The default setting is %.
Note: The stream can be enabled/disabled even when the test is started and
running. Enable Stream is not available for RFC 2544 test. A stream cannot
be enabled if its MAC address is not valid, it can be either not resolved or
wrongly entered.
