RFC 2544 tests can be run with different frame sizes. In ACX Series routers, the
supported frame sizes are 64, 68, 72, 128, 256, 512, 768, 1024, 1280, 1518, 1522, 1600,
1728, 2496, 3584, 4016, 9104, and 9136 bytes.
•
The minimum mandated duration for RFC 2544 benchmark tests to run is 10 seconds.
•
The test uses round-trip traffic for performance measurement.
•
A history of the test results is stored in memory.
•
The test results can be copied to the local file system or a remote file system, optionally.
NOTE: RFC 2544 test is not supported to compute the performance attributes
of multicast or broadcast traffic streams.

Configuring RFC 2544-Based Benchmarking Tests
To configure a RFC 2544 benchmark test on an initiator, you must first configure a
test-profile and reference the test-profile in a unique test-name. The test-name defines
the parameters for the tests to be performed.
To configure a test-profile, include the test-profile profile-name statement at the [edit
services rpm rfc2544-benchmarking] hierarchy level. Test profile is applicable only for
initiator.
To configure a test-name, include the test-name test-name statement at the [editservices
rpm rfc2544-benchmarking] hierarchy level.
To configure Ethernet loopback as the test mode on a logical interface, include the
Ethernet-loopback statement at the [edit services rpm rfc2544-benchmarking] hierarchy
level.
NOTE: The test-profile is not required while configuring the reflector for RFC
2544 test.
Table 106 on page 1341 lists the parameters for configuring test-profile at initiator.
