Example for Configuring a Layer 2 Ethernet Service Activation Test (Y.1564)
This section describes how to configure a Layer 2 Ethernet service activation test to check whether network performance complies with the SLA.
Networking Requirements
Figure 1 shows how to check the Ethernet frame transmission performance between Device B and Device C complies with the SLA.
Configuration Roadmap
- Configure a reflector (Device C) and flow-based traffic filtering with the reflection port being set to GE0/1/1.
- Configure an initiator (Device B) as well as configuration and performance tests.
Data Preparation
To complete the configuration, you need the following data:
- Configurations of the reflector (Device C): The MAC address of GE0/1/1 on Device D connected to UNI B is 2-2-2, and the reflector is configured to implement reflection based on flows.
Configurations of the initiator (Device B)
Service flow configurations and characteristics:
- Destination MAC address: 2-2-2, that is, the MAC address of GE0/1/1 on Device D connected to UNI B
- Source MAC address: 1-1-1, that is, the MAC address of GE0/1/1 on Device A connected to UNI A
- VLAN ID 10 in single-tagged Ethernet packets
- UDP destination port number 1234
- UDP source port number 5678
Bandwidth template with both the CIR and EIR being set to 10000 kbit/s
Service acceptance criteria FLR with the FLR being set to 1000/100000 and both the FTD and FDV being set to 1000 microseconds
Enabling of the simple CIR test, traffic policing test, and color mode
Ethernet service activation test instance
Procedure
- Configure a reachable link between the initiator and reflector and add Layer 2 interfaces to VLAN 10.
- Configure the reflector.
