Abstract:
Benchmarking Methodology Working Group (BMWG) has been developing key
performance metrics and laboratory test methods since 1990, and
continues this work at present. Recent application of the methods
beyond their intended scope is cause for concern. The methods
described in RFC 2544, where overload is a possible outcome, would no
doubt be harmful to user traffic performance on a production network.
This memo clarifies the scope of RFC 2544 and other benchmarking work
for the IETF community.
