Page 13: Chapter 5 Performance Test Procedure
Chapter 5 - Performance Test Procedure CHAPTER 5 - PERFORMANCE TEST PROCEDURE The Data Plane Development Kit (DPDK) is a core platform technology component of the Intel® Select Solution for uCPE reference design for both base and plus configurations. As such, it is expected that a compliant platform must implement DPDK software and meet the performance metrics as defined in this section. - Page 14 Lanner uCPE NCA-4020 Count the frames that are transmitted back by the DUT. If the number of sent frames is not equal to the count of received frames, reduce the number of sent frames and rerun the test. The throughput is the fastest rate at which the count of test frames transmitted by the DUT is equal to the number of test frames sent to it by the test equipment.
