Title : Terminology for Benchmarking SIP Networking Devices
Author(s) : S. Poretsky, et al.
Filename : draft-poretsky-sip-bench-term-01.txt
Pages : 22
Date : 2006-6-27
This document provides a terminology for benchmarking SIP
performance in networking devices. Terms are included for test
components, test setup parameters, and performance benchmark metrics
for black-box benchmarking of SIP networking devices. The
Performance Benchmark Metrics are obtained for the SIP Control Plane
and Media Plane. The terms are intended for use in a companion
Methodology document for complete performance characterization of a
device in a variety of network conditions making it possible to
compare performance of different devices. It is critical to provide
Test Setup Parameters and a Methodology document for SIP performance
benchmarking because SIP allows a wide range of configuration and
operational conditions that can influence performance benchmark
measurements. It is necessary to have terminology and methodology
standards to ensure that reported benchmarks have consistent
definition and were obtained following the same procedures.
Benchmarks can be applied to a variety of SIP networking device
including SIP Servers, Session Border Controllers (SBCs), and
SIP-Aware Stateful Firewalls (SASFs) as a Device Under Test (DUT)
or in combination as a System Under Test (SUT).

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
