You can set the NuApps-SwitchPerform’s Packet Generation Mode here. The Packet Generation Mode
includes:

¾ Fix Loading: NuApps-SwitchPerform will generate and send packets for the set amount of time or

number of packets.

¾ Burst: NuApps-SwitchPerform will generate and send packets in a burst manner for the set amount of

time, stop, and start generating and sending packets in a burst manner for another set amount of time.
The amount of times available in the scroll-down menu include: 200 ms (millisecond), 250 ms, 500 ms,
1 second, 2 seconds, 4 seconds, and 5 seconds.

¾ Communication Mode: The Communication Mode is only available

when you choose “Others (Network Video Player)” in Port Select setting
page’s “Kind of Test Device” field. Choosing this mode allows
NuApps-SwitchPerform to send user-defined packet streams to the DUT. When the Loop function is
enabled, NuApps-SwitchPerform will send the user-defined packets to the DUT in a loop-back manner.
The Interval field allows you to set the time interval (second) between each loop.

MAC Learning Setting*
The MAC Learning Setting function allows learning packets transmitted to the DUT before test packets are
transmitted.

¾ Frame Count: Repeat frame count per learning packets burst.

Port Configuration

Click the Enable Flow Control check box to enable NuApps-SwitchPerform’s flow control function. If the
flow control function is enabled, the transmitting rate will drop if traffic overflow occurs.

VLAN Setting*

Enable this function to add VLAN tag to packets.

VLAN (Virtual LAN) is a group of hosts with common requirements that
communicate within the same Broadcast domain regardless of the physical
location.

By clicking the Setup button, you can configure CoS (class of service)
and VID (VLAN ID) on the pop-up VLAN Setup window by double-clicking
the CoS or VID field you would like to configure.

¾ OK: Apply the changes you made and exit VLAN Setup.
¾ Cancel: Cancel the changes you made and exit.
¾ Apply: Apply the changes you made without exiting.
