User Guide

A.14.2. ITU-T Y.1564 Test
1. Supports the Ethernet service activation methodology defined in ITU-T Y.1564
when the equipment is configured in Ethernet Endpoint and IP Endpoint modes.
2. Testing of up to eight services (non-color aware mode) or up to four services (color
aware mode) with configuration of the CIR, and EIR for each of them.
3. Configuration of frame delay (FTD), frame delay variation (FDV), frame loss ratio
(FLR) and availability objectives for each service to be verified.
4. Settings for test phase 1 (Network Configuration Test) are Steps (integer number)
and Step duration (seconds). Settings for phase 2 (Ethernet Service Test) are the
Phase duration and bandwidth profile (deterministic, random).
5. The test bandwidth profile for test phase 1 is a modified ramp where the CIR, EIR
and maximum throughput rates are forced and the other transmission rates are
derived from the Steps setting. For phase 2, the test bandwidth profile is
deterministic / random generated at the CIR bit rate for all services at the same
time.
6. The FTD, FDV (mean value) and FLR is measured for each step in phase 1 and
phase 2 and a pass / fail indication is computed for each step. Phase 1 fails if
there is at least one failed result in this phase. Phase 2 does not start is phase 1
fails.
A.14.3. IETF RFC 6349 Test
1. Operation modes: active (client) or passive (server).
2. Accepted endpoints in client mode: Albedo and IPerf3.
3. Allows user configuration of the MTU and MSS.
4. User configuration of the Bottleneck Bandwidth (BB) in frames/s or as a percent-
age of the nominal link capacity.
5. Measurement of the Round-Trip Time (RTT) based on the mechanism described
in RFC 2544 through a single UDP stream.
6. Window sweep test at four different window sizes: 25%, 50%, 75% and 100% of
the BDP.
7. Measurement of the Transfer Time ratio, TCP Efficiency and Buffer delay as
defined in RFC 6349 4.1, 4.2 and 4.3.
A.15.Port Loopback
1. Layer 1-4 loopback.
2. Loop frames matching current filtering conditions or loop all frames in layer 2-4
loopbacks.
3. Loop controls for broadcast and ICMP frames.
