9145 Network Interface Device 3-9
9. Min test payload (40 – 1954)
This sets the minimum test packet size in bytes. The 9145 sends test
packets ranging in size from the minimum packet size to the maximum packet
size if they are different. This is done by mapping the packets to be sent onto
the range of sizes between the minimum and maximum packet sizes. The
minimum packet size must be less than or equal to the maximum packet size.
10. Max test payload (40 – 1954)
This sets the maximum test packet size in bytes. The maximum packet size
must be greater than or equal to the minimum packet size.
11. Test Packet Timeout sec
The packet timeout for this test in seconds. If a response is not received by
the packet timeout value, the packet will be classified as dropped. The value
set here is also used to set the maximum values that can be used for both the
Latency and Jitter Measurements.
12. Start/Stop test
Starts and Stops the test.
13. Remote Latency Test
When SideBand Management Channel (SBMC) is enabled, you can initiate
and view test results of the remote unit from the local unit.
PING Generation
This is a network trouble shooting tool used to determine if a destination is reachable
from the NID. Self-Ping, pinging the Management IP Address tests connectivity
between the management processor and the 9145’s FPGA. This is an additional
self-check function.
Network Performance Assurance (Optional feature)
Accessible when the optional Network Performance Assurance (NPA) software is
installed. Please see the NPA manual for details.
