Spirent TestCenter: Why does the RFC-2544 results show higher Mbps rate per iteration than the actual port speed?

Environment/Versions
  • For the RFC-2544 results, when set to display load in percentage, the max load is 100%, but with Mbps it combines all the ports total rate.
  • The results shown here is a test with eight 10G ports.
Answer
  • It is an expected behavior as we are showing the result in one row for each iteration and it is adding all ports traffic and showing full Mbps traffic.
  • The RFC does not mention anything particular about this aspect in the reporting format.
