Opening a Traffic Generation File
Once the Traffic Generation file (*.ssg) file has been created, you can then open it in the
SASSuite application.
To open a Traffic Generation file,
Step 1 Select Open under File on the Menu Bar
OR
Click on the Tool Bar.
Step 2 Select a Generator text file (*.ssg) and click Open. If needed,
navigate to the install directory. For samples, see the install
directory. The Generator file appears in a Trace view, shown
below:
Layout The .ssg file will show several colored bars across the screen that represent global
settings. The bars serve to show how the generation file is currently configured. These
settings include the link speed (1.5 Gbps vs. 3.0 Gbps), the type of device (for example,
SAS Initiator or SATA Device), COMINIT, COMWAKE and some other settings. As
changes are made and saved to the traffic generation file, the bars will immediately
update.
The actual traffic pattern that is about to be generated appears below the bars as a series
of Frames. In the generation file shown in the above screenshot, the first generation
Frame is a Start of Address Frame labeled as Frame 8.
You can edit the traffic generation file to add, edit or remove frames.
