• STC all releases
• Traffic Generator
• Step duration Mode
• Burst duration Mode

This will be explained using a config with the following details:

• 10 stream blocks
  • Length of each increments by 1 bytes starting from 64 bytes
  • We can use this in the pcap to easily see what stream block is being tx/rx

• BURST MODE:
  1. Here we use a step of 9
  2. We start the generator
  3. Wait a few seconds (so that you can see a gap in the timestamp in Wireshark)
  4. Start the generator again
  5. Here is the resultant pcap
     • note how the 10th packet, which is the first one from step 4, is 64 bytes
     • This means the generator starts at the top of the stream blocks, that is, stream block with index 0

• Step mode:

1. Here we use a step of 9
2. We start the generator
3. Wait a few seconds (so that you can see a gap in the timestamp in Wireshark)
4. Start the generator again
5. Here is the resultant pcap
   • note how the 10th packet, which is the first one from step 4, is 73 bytes.
   • This time the generator will start off where it left off after step 2
   • Also note that if you change any parameter in the generator, the starting point of the next “start generator” will be back at stream block index 0.
