CIRCUIT PARAMETERS FOR SOLICITATION HC101318QB023

CIRCUIT REQUIRES THE FOLLOWING PARAMETERS:

CIRCUIT SPECIFICATIONS: CONUS JUMBO FRAME ETHERNET

ACCEPTANCE TESTING SHALL BE PERFORMED BY VENDOR IN ACCORDANCE

WITH ITU-T Y.1564. TEST PERIOD 24 HOURS. TESTS COVERED IN

SECTIONS 9.1, 10, 11.1, 14, 20, 21, 26.1, 26.2, AND 26.3 OF RFC

6815 MUST BE PERFORMED AND RESULTS REPORTED IN THE FORMAT

SPECIFIED BY THE RFC OR ITU-T Y.

SPECIFICALLY FRAMES SIZES OF 64, 128, 256, 512, 1024, 1280, 1518,

2048, 4472, 8192 AND 9192 BYTES MUST BE USED. THE TEST MUST

VERIFY LENGTH OF RECEIVED FRAMES, INDICATE NUMBER OF FRAMES

DROPPED, NUMBER OF FRAMES RECEIVED OUT OF ORDER, AND DUPLICATE

FRAMES. TESTS MUST BE BI-DIRECTIONAL USING THE SAME DATA RATE IN

EACH DIRECTION. BURST TESTS MUST BE RUN TO DETERMINE MINIMUM

INTERVAL BETWEEN FRAMES THAT CAN BE PROCESSED WITHOUT FRAME LOSS.

A THROUGHPUT TEST IS REQUIRED INDICATING THE FASTEST RATE AT

WHICH TEST FRAMES CAN BE TRANSMITTED WITHOUT FRAME LOSS. A

SEPARATE THROUGHPUT TEST

MUST BE RUN WITH FRAMES ADDRESSED TO THE HARDWARE BROADCAST

ADDRESS CONSTITUTING AT LEAST 1% OF THE TEST STREAM AND BE EVENLY

DISTRIBUTED THROUGHOUT THE TEST.

A LATENCY TEST MUST BE RUN FOR

A PERIOD OF NO LESS THAN 120 SECONDS, AND REPEATED NO LESS THAT

20 TIMES. THE TEST STREAM FOR THE LATENCY TEST SHOULD BE RUN AT

THE THROUGHPUT RATE FOR CORRESPONDING FRAME SIZES FROM THE

THROUGHPUT TEST. END TO END LATENCY WILL BE CALCULATED AS THE

AVERAGE OVER THE 20 TEST RUNS.

FRAME LOSS RATE TESTS SHOULD BE RUN AT THE FRAME RATE

CORRESPONDING TO THE MAXIMUM FRAME RATE, AND REDUCED BY 10%

INTERVALS UNTIL THERE ARE AT LEAST TWO CONSECUTIVE RUNS IN WHICH

NO FRAMES ARE LOST.

THROUGHPUT TEST RESULTS: PASSING RATE 100% FOR ALL FRAME BYTE

SIZES EXERCISED.

FRAME LOSS RATE (%) RESULTS: FRAME LOSS RATE LESS THAN 0.01% FOR

ALL FRAME BYTE SIZES EXERCISED.

LATENCY WILL BE MEASURED WILL BE ACCORDING TO THE FOLLOWING

ANY APS SWITCHOVER SHALL TAKE LESS THAN 50 MILLISECONDS

MONTHLY AVAILABILITY SHALL BE NO LESS THAN 99.5%.
