Viavi MTS 5800 RFC-2544 Layer 3 IPv4 Test Guide

About this manual

This document details the procedure for using the Viavi MTS 5800 to measure metro Ethernet performance based on the enhanced RFC 2544 test method. It covers setting up the device as a Layer 3 IPv4 loopback device and running tests to verify Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) such as throughput, latency, and frame loss, as well as jitter and Committed Burst Size (CBS). This manual is written in Chinese.
