ABSTRACT

The Benchmarking Methodology Working Group (BMWG in IETF) will continue to produce a series of recommendations concerning the key performance characteristics of internetworking technologies, or benchmarks for network devices, systems, and services. RFC 7640 discusses and defines a practical methodology for benchmarking the traffic management capabilities of networking devices. Also, it defines the methods to characterize the capacity of the following traffic management features in network devices: classification, policing, queuing/scheduling, and traffic shaping. It provides a framework to conduct repeatable traffic management benchmarks for devices and systems. And, this framework can also be used as a test procedure to assist in the tuning of traffic management parameters of benchmark for devices and systems.
