Service Disruption
No Traffic Time (ms) represents the time between two Ethernet
Frames that is acceptable without raising an alarm including a Service
Disruption event: 0.005 ms to 1000 ms in step of 0.005 ms (default is
50 ms).
Disruption Monitoring check box when selected (disabled by
default) enables the disruption time measurements. However, the
measurement will only start if the test is already started, or when the
test will be started.
Note: Clearing the Disruption Monitoring check box will stop the measurement
without clearing the results. The disruption monitoring is automatically
stopped without clearing results when the test is stopped. However, starting
the test again while the Disruption Monitoring check box is selected will
reset the results before restarting.
Pass/Fail Verdict allows to enable and configure the SDT Threshold.
SDT Threshold allows to configure the amount of time with no traffic
that is accepted before failing the test: 0.005 to 299999.995 ms in step
of 0.005 ms (default is 50 ms). The threshold value cannot be less than
the No Traffic Time value.
Shaping
TX Rate allows the selection of the transmission rate in percentage of
utilization (100% by default), Mbit/s, Gbit/s, Frame/s, or IFG. For
Ethernet, the maximum percentage is 105% depending on the frame
size selected.
Enable TX check box is automatically selected when starting the test
allowing stream generation; automatically cleared when the test stops.
The Enable TX check box may also be selected or cleared while the
test is running.
