iSAM
iSAM is a simplified version of EtherSAM that is centered around addressing
turn-up of E-Line circuits (EVC). The objective of the test is to validate
Carrier Ethernet-based services key performance indicators defined in
MEF: Frame Delay (FD), Inter-Frame Delay Variation (IFDV), and Frame
Loss Ratio (FLR). In addition the RFC 6349 subtest can be enabled to
validate that the Ethernet service is able to properly carry TCP traffic.
The iSAM test has to be executed in conjunction with a remote unit. The
remote unit can be either in loopback configuration for unidirectional
testing or in EtherSAM Dual Test Set mode for bidirectional testing.
The Dual Test Set test allows bi-directional testing between two
compatible units providing independent results for each test direction. The
results from local-to-remote and remote-to-local are available on the local
testing unit.
Typical iSAM test applications:
Supported Interfaces/Rates: 10M to 100G.
