RFC-2889 & RFC-2285 Test Software Suite for NuStreams-2000/600

NuApps-2544 is designed to determine the performance of a L2 DUT. It is fully automated and scalable, contains an enhanced GUI with real-time graphing, and supports NuStreams-600/2000 chassis. NuApps-2889 is based on RFC 2285, Benchmarking Terminology for LAN Switching Devices, and RFC 2889, Benchmarking Methodology for LAN Switching Devices. It is considered the TRUE first-level benchmark for all switches. Forwarding: Determines the forwarding performance of the DUT, as well as the device's frame loss, frame rate, throughput, and supports full-mesh, partial mesh, and non-mesh traffic patterns. Congestion Control: Determines the effect of a congested port on a non-congested port, otherwise known as Head of Line Blocking, and measures and graphs the frame loss and frame rate of non-congested and congested ports. Address Learning: Determines the rate at which a DUT can learn addresses without flooding, and measures the percentage of learned frames at the rate which all addresses are learned. Address Caching: Determines the address caching capacity and measures the percentage of addresses learned at a given rate. Error Filtering: Determines the DUT's ability to handle errors, including CRC, oversized, undersized, VLAN oversized, alignment, and dribble bit errors. Broadcast Forwarding: Determines the DUT's ability to forward broadcast traffic by measuring frame loss and throughput. Users can set up multiple source ports, receiver ports, and monitor ports. Broadcast Latency: Determines the latency of the broadcast traffic. Users can set up only one source port but can assign multiple receiver ports. Forward Pressure: Determines the device's ability to handle forward pressure, and measures the number of frames received versus the number of frames expected.
