A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts
directories.
This draft is a work item of the Benchmarking Methodology Working Group of the IETF.
Title : Methodology Guidelines for Accelerated Stress Benchmarking
Author(s) : S. Rao, S. Poretsky
Filename : draft-ietf-bmwg-acc-bench-meth-06.txt
Pages : 13

Routers in an operational network are configured with multiple
protocols and security policies while simultaneously forwarding
traffic and being managed. To accurately benchmark a router for
deployment it is necessary to test the router under accelerated
operational conditions, which is known as Stress Testing. This
document provides the Methodology Guidelines for performing
Accelerated Stress Benchmarking of networking devices.
Descriptions of Test Topology, Benchmarks and Reporting Format
are provided in addition to procedures for conducting various
test cases. The methodology is to be used with the companion
terminology document [4]. These guidelines can be used as the
basis for additional methodology documents that benchmark
stress conditions for specific network technologies.

In the body type:

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.
