2-point CDV Test

A 2-point CDV test is concerned with cell delivery times, specifically with the
actual delay experienced by cells transmitted between two points in a network.
During this test, the OC3port Plus captures a sample of cells and calculates the cell
transfer delay. The tester reports the delay in cell times.

Setting Up a 2-point CDV Test

The OC3port Plus, at best, can guarantee a CDV of two cell times
for each transmission stream. Therefore, a minimum CDV test result
that uses the OC3port Plus as a source will be 2.0 cell times.
The same OC3port Plus analyzer must be used in this test as both the
source and receiver of test traffic because the transmit and receive
time stamps must originate from the same timing source.
The operation of this test depends on the transmit stream definitions
selected when the test is run. If, for example, TRANSMIT STREAM 3
is used to perform the test, only cells that have headers matching this
stream are analyzed.
