Allied Telesyn QoS testing

Hi guys,

I need to qualify an Allied Telesyn router from a delay, jitter, packet loss and, most importantly, QoS. The router is GbE, so we are arranging a raft of linux PC's to drive the router to the congestion point and verify that the QoS parameters are being adhered to.

Additionally, we then need to feed a number of QoS-managed video feeds through with some noise traffic to ensure that the QoS policies protect the video feed.

The intention for the bulk of the testing is to use IPerf as the traffic generator, enforcing the TOS bits appropriately to validate the links.

As I am a bit new to this, and we are on an incredibly tight project timescale, I wonder if anyone who has had similar experiences would care to share the common gotchas and advice they gathered whilst performing similar testing?

Many thanks for your kind assistance.

All best, Chris B.
