Creating and Starting a Test Case
Ethernet and Fibre Channel Application 83
Ethernet EtherSAM (Y.1564) and RFC 2544 Dual Test Set Test Cases
Create the test on the local module as follow:
1. On the local module, proceed with the test creation as described
above (starting with step 1 on page 79) at the exception of the
following parameters:
1a. Select the desired EtherSAM (Y.1564) or RFC 2544 sub test(s). All
sub tests are selected by default.
For RFC 2544:
Throughput: Gives the maximum throughput of the device under
test for which there is no frame loss. Refer to Throughput on
page 302 for more information.
Back-to-Back: Gives the maximum number of frames that can be
sent at maximum throughput. Refer to Back-to-Back on page 307
for more information.
Frame Loss: Gives the percentage of frames that are lost. Refer to
Frame Loss on page 311 for more information.
Latency: Gives the time required for the sent frame to go through
the device under test. Refer to Latency on page 315 for more
information.
For EtherSAM (Y.1564):
Service Configuration Test consists in sequentially testing each
service. It validates that the service is properly provisioned and
that all specific KPIs or SLA parameters are met.
Service Performance Test simultaneously validates the quality of
all the services over time.
1b. For Dual Test Set Mode (see step 1e on page 79), select the Local
test mode.
