Ethernet Framed Layer 1: Consists in sending a frame of x bytes
specified from the frame size field; refer to frame Size on page
209 for more information. This framing type allows the connection
to any interface that complies with 802.3 Ethernet PHY or DWDM
fibre.
Ethernet Framed Layer 2: Consists in sending a frame of x bytes
specified from the frame size field; refer to frame Size on page
209 for more information. This framing type allows the connection
to any EtherType interface (10/100/1000Mbps) or Ethernet
network (10GigE) that complies with 802.3 Ethernet Layer 2 (valid
MAC address, type/length, and FCS bytes).
Note: For Layer 3 and Layer 4, choose Ethernet Framed Layer 2 and refer to
Stream Generation Tabs - Overview on page 200 once the test is created.
