Ethernet Performance Validation (RFC 2544)
The Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) has put
together a test methodology to address the issues of
performance verification at the layer two and three
levels. RFC 2544, a “Benchmarking Methodology for
Network Interconnect Devices,” specifies the requirements and procedures for testing throughput, back-toback frames (burst), frame loss and latency. The Gigabit
Testing Module can perform the RFC 2544 test suite
for 10/100/1000BASE-T and optical GigE interfaces at
all frame sizes and at full-line rate. The Gigabit Testing
Module supports automated RFC 2544 testing, which
helps ensure repeatable results. Automation also
provides ease of use for field technicians by enabling
accurate, efficient measurements and results through
a clear and simple pass/fail indication.

The Gigabit testing module offers three essential
Ethernet testing methods:
HARDWARE
Set test thresholds for
clear pass/fail test results
|
Expert-mode capability
The Gigabit testing module can be used in three
configurations.
•t Module to Module - requires two modules; in this
setup, one of the modules is placed in loop back
mode so that it can act as a switch.
•t Module to Diverter - requires one module and the
1000-DIVERTER; the diverter is a simple switch
which flips the sender and receiver MAC address
and transmits the packet of data back to the module
•t Module to Switch - requires one module and one
installed Gigabit switch; this setup is typically used
for troubleshooting an existing Gigabit network
