Birth Certificate Special Field

Under normal circuit testing, its very likely that circuits will need to be
tested multiple times, as issues with the circuit are found and fixed. This
generates multiple copies of tests on the same circuit. In order to allow a
quick visual indication that a particular test is the final one, the concept of
a Birth Certificate was created.
One customer has used this feature to force their testers to tag each test
as either AdHoc, or Birth Certificate.
Then back end programs that scan the raw test results, or the PDF result
files, can filter out all the tests except those tagged as a Birth Certificate.

RFC 2544 Test
Purpose of RFC 2544

RFC 2544 describes six subtests. The four subtests that are specifically tested using the QT-600 are:

Throughput: Measures the maximum rate at which none of the offered frames are dropped by the
device/system under test (DUT/SUT). This measurement translates into the available bandwidth of the
Ethernet virtual connection.

Latency: Measures the round-trip time taken by a test frame to travel through a network device or across
the network and back to the test port. Latency is the time interval that begins when the last bit of the input
frame reaches the input port and ends when the first bit of the output frame is seen on the output port. It is
the time taken by a bit to go through the network and back.

Frame loss: Defines the percentage of frames that should have been forwarded by a network device
under steady state (constant) loads that were not forwarded due to lack of resources. This measurement
can be used for reporting the performance of a network device in an overloaded state such as broadcast
storms.

Back-to-back or burstability: Measures the longest burst of frames at maximum throughput or minimum
legal separation between frames that the device or network under test will handle without any loss of
frames. This measurement is a good indication of the buffering capacity of a DUT.

The Layer 2 OAM Loopback option lets you send 802.1ag/Y.1731 Loopback
Messages (LBM) as part of the RFC 2544 test. The payload of the traffic is an
LBM. This feature lets you verify the ability of a network element to process LBM
messages at line rate as well as generate Loopback Relay (LBR) messages.
The frames transmitted by this test will always contain the Data TLV and will
additionally contain the Sender TLV based on the Include Sender TLV test
setting. This test does not support multicast destinations

RFC 2544 QT600 Setup Tab

Subscriber rate/CIR
Measured in Mbps or Kbps, this is the committed information rate for the customer. The field at the right identifies the units used for
the subscriber rate:
Mbps. (Default) When set to Mbps (megabits per second), from 1-10000 (for the QT-600-10).
Kbps. When set to Kbps (kilobits per second), the CIR ranges from 100-10000000 (for the QT-600-10).

Maximum line rate at customer access ( Called Access Rate for Y.1564)?
Used for Back to Back and CBS tests only, this parameter specifies the actual physical line speed of the customers line, and
dictates the maximum burst speed. The burst will consist of frames transmitted with the minimum inter-frame gap at this line speed.
For the QT-600-10, possible values are 10Mbps, 100Mbps, 1000Mbps, or 10000Mbps. The default is 100Mbps.

NOTE
You cannot run a back to back test with a requested line rate that is the same as the actual line rate of the probe test port. The
requested line rate must be less than the line rate of the port.

You cannot run a CBS test where the CIR is close to or exceeds the maximum line rate at the customer access. If you attempt to do
so, the probe does a best-effort traffic generation and provides a warning in the output results.

Remote VLAN tag count

Set this value to the number of VLAN tags that the traffic is expected to have
when it traverses the network link being tested. The probe uses this value along
with the stacked VLAN configuration to determine the frame rate to send out to
achieve the desired throughput at the remote end.
For example, if the probe transmits frames with two VLAN tags, and the remote
VLAN tag count is also two, then a frame rate that yields 50% utilization on the
probe should also generate 50% utilization on the remote end.
If the remote VLAN tag count is smaller than the count for the probe end, then a
frame rate that generates more than 50% utilization on the local side must be
used to achieve 50% utilization at the remote end.
Default value is No VLAN tags

RFC 2544 QT600 Setup Tab

What is Network Overhead (0-256) ?

This value is used to calculate the Network Rate in the Throughput results. The Network Rate is what your
internal network has to push in order to achieve the requested Subscriber Rate/CIR. The examples below show
the Network Rate based on 0, 1, 128, and 255 bytes of Overhead. In the case of 128 bytes of Network
Overhead with a frame size of 64 bytes, the internal network would need to be groomed to handle 25.24 Mbps
for a CIR of 10 Mbps.

This value does NOT change the size of the packets transmitted by the QT600.

Y.1564
What is Y.1564 ?
The newest standard for Ethernet service activation testing utilizing the
service attributes defined in the Metro Ethernet Forum (MEF) 10.2
implementation agreement. Approved March 1, 2011 by the ITU.

Used in the Turn-Up and Troubleshooting of Ethernet-based services.

Y.1564 is designed around three key objectives:


To serve as a network service level agreement (SLA) validation tool,
ensuring that a service meets its guaranteed performance settings in a
controlled test time.
To ensure that all services carried by the network meet their SLA
objectives at their maximum committed rate, proving that under maximum
load network devices and paths can support all the traffic as designed.
To perform medium- and long-term service testing, confirming that network
elements can properly carry all services while under stress during a soaking
period.

Service Configuration Test
Each defined service is tested individually to validate network configuration.
Service attributes such as committed information rate (CIR), rate limiting, traffic shaping, and committed
burst size are tested to ensure that they are configured correctly.
Service Performance Test
A long-term test is conducted and compared to specified pass/fail criteria.
Quality of Service (QoS), Frame Delay, Frame Delay Variation, Frame Loss, and Out-of-Sequence
(OoS) packets are validated.
All services are tested simultaneously.

VLAN. This field is enabled only for VLAN TAM control or no TAM control.
C-VLAN
The VLAN ID that is to be inserted into every stacked VLAN tag generated.
Possible values range from 1-4095
Network Overhead (bytes)
The data transmitted between the QT-600 and test end points can travel through
diverse customer networks. Within these networks, fields can be added and remove
from the test packets as they traverse remote devices. To account for this, use the
Network overhead field to add a fixed number of bytes (from 0 to 255) into the QT-
600 throughput calculations to derive a Network Throughput Rate. Default value is
0
TAM Control
Toggles On and Off. When TAM Control is turned On, additional TAM
Configuration fields are enabled

CIR (Mbps)
Measured in Mbps, this is the committed information rate (CIR) for the customer. The CIR is an
information rate and therefore does NOT include Ethernet overhead as in RFC 2455 testing.

EIR (Mbps)
Specifies whether to test EIR (excess information rate). The EIR option is available only if the Service
Configuration test (on the Y.1564 Setup tab) is enabled. By default, EIR is enabled.

Policing (Mbps)
Specifies whether to test the process of dropping frames at the interface that are non-conformant to
either CIR or EIR (red frames).

Policing Excess Allowed


When Policing is selected, traffic will be sent based on a Policing algorithm that is above CIR + EIR
and declared a failure if traffic greater than CIR + EIR + M is received. Policing algorithm is 25% CIR
if EIR is less than 20% CIR, otherwise it is 25% EIR.
Specifies the amount above CIR + EIR allowed to be received before failing the test. This value does
not include Ethernet overhead and does not affect Max Load. This field is available only when the
Policing is enabled (On). The default value is 0 Mbps

CBS (KB)
Specifies whether to test Committed Burst Size (CBS). The CBS option is available only if the
Service Configuration test (on the Y.1564 Setup tab) is enabled. By default, CBS is not enabled..
Specifies the size of the burst for the CBS test. This field is available only
when the CBS box is selected. This value can range from 1-1024 KB. The
default value is 64 KB

S-VLAN Priority
The priority that the probe is to insert into every VLAN tag generated. This can be used to
simulate what a router might do to provide QoS functions. Possible values range from
Priority 0 to Priority 7; the default value is Priority 0. This field is always visible.
For Layer 2 tests, each stream must have a unique S-VLAN Priority.

Verify Priority
When enabled, the probe will use the VLAN Priority value as part of the filter for received
packets. So, if the received VLAN Priority is different from the transmitted, the received
packets will not be counted. This field is visible for Layer 2 testing.

SCT Frame Sizes to Test


Specifies the frame size(s) to be used sequentially for the Service Configuration test. Severals Frame are possible.
This option is available only if the Service Configuration test (on the Y.1564 Setup tab) is enabled. The default value for
Service Configuration Frame Size(s) is 512 bytes

SPT Frame Sizes to Test


Specifies the frame size(s) to be used for the Service Configuration test. Single Frame or EMIX Pattern. This option is
available only if the Service Configuration test (on the Y.1564 Setup tab) is enabled. The default value for Service
Configuration Frame Size(s) is 512 bytes

The available frame size options are based on payload size; the actual size of the frames sent out will differ slightly from what is specified.
For tests configured with an S-VLAN (802.1q), the frame size increases by four bytes.
For tests configured with S-VLANs and C-VLANs (stacked VLAN or Q-in-Q), the frame size increases by eight bytes.

This value is shown in the VLAN Adjusted Size line which is displayed immediately after the Frame Size line.

Y.1564 Stream Configuration Cont.

EMIX Pattern
EMIX functionality provides for a sequence of variable sized frames to be sent for a given stream. This
flexibility allows you to configure a test stream very close to real world traffic. The capability is available for
both the Service Configuration Test (SCT) and Service Performance Test (SPT) portions of the Y.1564 test.
For the Service Configuration Test portion, which allows the user to configure multiple frame sizes to be
tested, one at a time, EMIX will just be another iteration of that phase.
For Service Performance Test, currently only a single frame size is used. If EMIX is selected for SPT, the
EMIX sequence will be sent instead of one single frame size.

Y.1564 Stream Configuration Cont.

ToS/DiffServ
Specifies whether the ToS byte of the frame is to contain a Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP)
value or a Type of Service (ToS) value. DSCP is an alternate interpretation of the ToS byte in IP packets.
Select ToS to enter a ToS value in the field to the right; select Diffserv to select a DiffServ value. DiffServ
is the default

Verify ToS/DiffServ
Toggle this field either Yes (default) or No

TTL
Sets the Time to Live field in the packet header to this value. The default value is 32. Time to Live is the
number of router hops a packet is allowed before it is discarded for having been in the network too long.
Each router that receives the packet subtracts one from the count in the Time to Live field. When the count
reaches zero, the router detecting it discards the packet and sends an ICMP message back to the
originating host.

2015 Viavi Solutions, Inc. | Viavi Confidential and Proprietary Information 99


DiffServ
Y.1564 Stream Configuration Cont.

ToS/DiffServ
A DiffServ value identifies the DSCP that is to be used as a filter. The DSCP refers to the
first six bits of the TOS byte, which defines how specific packets should be moved through
the network.
For detailed information about Class Selector (CS) per-hop behavior, see RFC2474
(http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2474.txt).
For detailed information about Assured Forwarding (AF) per-hop behavior, see RFC2597
(http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2597.txt).
For detailed information about Expedited Forwarding (EF) per-hop behavior, see RFC2598
(http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2598.txt).

A ToS value specifies the eight bits of the Type of Service (ToS) field of the IP header. The
default is 00000000. This field shows the binary number representing the ToS value. If the
you know the hexadecimal value you want to enter, you can do so. For example, if you type
the value 0x28 and click enter, the value will show its binary equivalence 00101000

Asymmetric Remote Test

(Required License, MTS5800 instrument)


About Asymmetric Remote Testing

This test involves a testing partner device, not as a loopback device, but as a
participant in the generation and measurement of test traffic.
Measurements taken on both sides of the circuit are compiled and presented in a
single, complete report.
This test is only for asymmetric testing; symmetrical and unidirectional testing are
not available at this time.

Asymmetric Remote Test capability is a licensable option (QT600-10-ASYMM) for


the QT-600-10.

Asymmetric Remote test is Y.1564 testing between a QT-600-10 and a JDSU


MTS 5800, MTS 6000, or MTS 8000 handheld device acting as a master device

For this release, the QT-600-10 emulates an MTS instrument as a remote device.
The QT-600-10 cannot act as a master device at this time*

Because the QT-600-10 acts as a remote, it does not provide a report of the
Asymmetric Test. The test data that the QT-600 collects is transmitted to the MTS
device, which compiles and transmits the complete report

TrueSpeed remote Tests

(Required License, MTS5800 instrument)


Purpose of TrueSpeed Remote Test

Traditionally, a service provider tests Ethernet services using RFC 2544 or other
types of layer 2/3 tests, but the customers business applications run on the TCP
layer
TrueSpeed provides tests and measurements of TCP Throughput which
represents the application layer network performance
The benefits of running the RFC 6349 compliant
TrueSpeedTM test include:
Ensure end-customer satisfaction before service is activated and prevent
customer churn.
Avoid future troubleshooting truck rolls and solve the bandwidth discrepancy
mystery by
applying best practices per RFC 6349.
Prove to the end-customers (who use Iperf) that the CPE may be the problem.

Loopback Test
Loopback Test

device that sends loop up command


The probe expects that another device, usually a JDSU FST-2802 test instrument or another probe, is going to remotely initiate a Loopback
test.
The probe monitors the link for 2802-format LoopUp requests from another device on the VLAN ID specified in the test configuration.
On receiving the first LoopUp frame, the QT learns the source MAC address from the frame.
Once the LoopUp is received and answered, the probe echoes back any frames from that source MAC that are addressed to the probe
specific MAC address, swapping the MAC addresses and IP addresses in the frame (if it is an IP frame).
(Broadcast, multicast, and loopback control frames are excluded.)
All other fields are preserved, including VLAN IDs. When it receives a LoopDown request, the probe stops echoing frames and either
terminates the test or waits for another LoopUp command
2015 Viavi Solutions, Inc. | Viavi Confidential and Proprietary Information 133
Loopback Frame from

a specific MAC address


The probe does not monitor for LoopUp or LoopDown commands.
Rather, it loops back all valid frames containing the VLAN ID specified in the
test configuration and transmitted by a specific, configured MAC address.
(Broadcast, multicast, and loopback control frames are excluded.)
If the frames are IP frames, the IP addresses are swapped.
In all cases, the MAC addresses are swapped

everything (blind loopback)


The probe does not monitor for LoopUp/LoopDown commands.
Rather, it loops back all valid frames received with the VLAN ID specified in the
test configuration. (Broadcast, multicast, and loopback control frames are
excluded.)
If the frames are IP frames, the IP addresses are swapped.
In all cases, the MAC addresses are swapped.

Ping test
Configuring Ping Test Parameters
Common method for troubleshooting the accessibility of devices.
It uses two Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) query messages, ICMP echo requests, and ICMP
echo replies to determine whether a remote host is active.
The ping command also measures the amount of time it takes to receive the echo reply.
