Title : Benchmarking Methodology for Wireless LAN Switching Systems

Filename : draft-alexander-bmwg-wlan-switch-meth-01.txt

This document provides a framework and methodology for performing
performance test and benchmarking of wireless LAN (WLAN) switches and
controllers, including systems comprising groups of controllers and
WTPs. This document defines and discusses a number of tests and
associated test conditions that may be used to characterize the
performance of such systems, and also supplies the methods used to
calculate the expected results of these tests. Specific formats for
reporting the results of the tests are also provided, where
applicable. The tests described in this document extend the
methodology defined for benchmarking network interconnect devices in
RFC 2544, and LAN switches in RFC 2889, to WLAN switch controller
systems. The methodology herein is to be used together with the
companion terminology document.

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.
