6 A series of setup menus appear, listing options for config-
uring the test type you selected in step 5 on page 211.
– If the displayed parameters are acceptable, simply
select OK or Accept to proceed to the next menu.
– If you want to change parameters for the test, use the
up and down arrow keys to select a new value, or
specify the new value, and then select OK or Accept
to store the parameter and proceed to the next menu.
– If you want to return to a previous menu to change a
setting, select Cancel.
After the test type parameters are all accepted or speci-
fied, the RFC 2544 Configurations dialog box appears,
listing the configuration name, test name, the tests to run
during the course of the test, and key parameters for each
of the tests. Proceed to step 7 on page 212.

– If the current parameters for each of the tests on the
RFC 2544 Configurations dialog box are acceptable,
select Run, and proceed to step 9 on page 213.
– If you need to change the tests selected for the script,
or change parameters for the tests, select Change,
and then proceed to step 8 on page 212.

dialog boxes which prompt you to specify key parameters
required for the test (for example, frame lengths, test
options, and bandwidth criteria). Additional parameters for
the test options you selected include:
