Integrated burst testing for Ethernet services

23 January 2013 Test & Measurement

JDSU has developed a complete test coverage approach for ‘bursty’ data applications, which comprise the majority of today’s network traffic. The company has integrated burst testing enhancements into RFC 2544 and Y.1564 SamComplete automated test procedures for its T-BERD/MTS platforms as well as its Ethernet Service Assurance solution, NetComplete.

This critical test helps service providers identify buffer provisioning issues and verify committed burst sizes (CBSs) now specified in many service-level agreements (SLAs). In combination with JDSU’s TrueSpeed RFC 6349 test suite, service providers can verify correct provisioning of the expected buffers to reduce frame loss as well as verify performance and experience their network like their customers do.

By providing full automation and ease of use, the system reduces complexity and operational expense through automated tools that minimise technician time and expedite time to revenue. It relies on standards-based test procedures such as RFC 2544, Y.1564 or RFC 6349 with clear pass/fail results for service providers based on the new MEF 23.1 recommendations.
