User Guide

To do that, users should assign an IP profile to each test port. Port A and Port B need
an IP address, network mask, gateway address and DNS address to operate.
Table 2.6: Local Ethernet / IP Profile
Result Description
Ethernet address This is a read-only field that displays the factory MAC
address assigned to the port. The traffic generator supports
emulation of MAC traffic from sources other than the factory
MAC, but the address displayed here is the real, unique MAC
address used in default configuration.
Frame This menu configures the Ethernet frame properties including
encapsulation, VLAN properties. Specifically, the Frame has
the following settings:
• Encapsulation: Selects between untagged Ethernet
frames (None) or IEEE 802.1Q VLAN-tagged frames
(VLAN).
• C-VID: Configures the VLAN identifier when Encapsulation
has been configured to VLAN. Any value within 0 to 4095
is allowed for this field.
• C-VLAN priority: Configures the VLAN priority bits
assigned to the frame. Any value between 0 and 7 is
allowed for this field.
The Frame settings apply to all traffic generated by the unit
unless it is specified otherwise by the corresponding settings.
The Frame settings also apply to the traffic received in the
test port.
Use DHCP Defines the procedure used to set the IP profile to the current
port. The port IP profile is made up of an IPv4 address, a net-
work mask, an optional gateway address and an optional
DNS address.
If Use DHCP is enabled, then the Dynamic Host Configura-
tion Protocol (DHCP) defined in standard RFC 1531 will be
used to set the IP profile in the current port.
Static IPv4 address Is the 32 bit IPv4 address assigned to the local port in decimal,
four-dotted format. Addressing scheme used here follows
standards RFC 790 and RFC 791.
The static addressing is used only if no dynamic address
configuration like DHCP is used for the port.
