Test Parameters
Ramp Traffic Policing Rate allows to stress the rate limiting of the network
by sending traffic at higher rate than committed by the SLA. The Ramp
Traffic Policing Rate check box is selected by default.
Burst Max Rate allows to set the rate that will be used for the CBS and EBS
burst tests. Burst Max Rate is only available when the Burst Test is
enabled; see Burst Test on page 326.
Note: Changing a criteria value (CIR, CIR+EIR, Ramp Traffic Policing, or Burst
Max Rate) may affect the other criteria values in order to comply to the
following rules:
CIR  CIR+EIR  Ramp Traffic Policing Rate  Line Rate
CIR  CIR+EIR  Burst Max Rate  Line Rate
However, make sure that the criteria values comply to the following rule
with an adequate margin, as per ITU-T Y.1564 standard, for a burst test to
be valid:
CIR  CIR+EIR  Burst Max Rate  Line Rate
