A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
Title : Benchmarking Methodology for Wireless LAN Devices
Author(s) : T. Alexander, S. Bradner
Filename : draft-alexander-wlan-meth-01.txt
Pages : 54
Date : 2005-5-3
This document provides a framework and methodology for performing
stress testing and benchmarking of wireless LAN (WLAN) devices,
including clients (i.e., host interfaces) and Access Points. The
document defines and discusses a number of tests and associated test
conditions that may be used to characterize the performance of such
devices, and also supplies the methods used to calculate the results
of these tests. This document also describes specific formats for
reporting the results of the tests. It extends the methodology
defined for benchmarking network interconnecting devices in RFC 2544
and LAN switches in RFC 2889 to IEEE 802.11 WLAN devices.

NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
