 Suggestion/Workaround -

Copying streamblock(s) from Spirent TestCenter configuration A to Configuration B is not supported. However, if a user wants to have same streamblock(s) on another configuration then the user may able to use the capture replay feature.

Example -> if a user wants to copy Streamblock(s) from configuration A to B.

Configuration A has Two streamblocks under a port and the Streamblocks need to be copied

1.       Select the “Traffic Generator” under the port

2.       Set Duration Mode to “Bursts” and set the ” Burst(s)” to 2

This will generate two streamblocks, one from each streamblocks since the port generator has two streamblocks configured based on the example

3.       Apply and start the capture on a receiving port

4.       Start Traffic on the Port

5.       Save and name the capture file

6.       Open the Configuration B where the streamblocks need to be copied

 

7.       Select the “Traffic Generator”  under a port

8.       Click Generate Streamblock from Pcap files

9.       The Streamblocks from the pcap file will be generated
