Start/Stop|TX Button
Start/Stop|TX Button
The Start/Stop|TX button allows starting or stopping manually any test as
well as enabling traffic generation.
To start the test:
Tap the Start button to start the test. Start is available when the test is
not running.
To stop the test:
Tap the Stop button to stop the test; the traffic generation also stops if it
was enabled (TX button). Stop is available when the test is running.
By default, a message is displayed when the test stops asking to
generate a report. To disable this feature, see Turn on Report
Generation on page 394. Nothing prevents the configuration and
alarm/error injection setup while the test has been stopped; thus, if a
report is required, it should be saved before changing any test
parameters to avoid discrepancy between the configuration and
results. See Report Button on page 392 to generate and save a report.
To enable traffic generation:
Tap the TX button to enable traffic generation; the test is also started if
it was not running.
Note: While the test is running the TX button is available to enable/disable traffic
generation.
Test Application Descripton
Traffic Gen & Mon Enables traffic generation for all enabled streams.
Some conditions, such as ARP not resolved, link down, etc., may prevent the stream to
be transmitted.
