Iteration- Tunnel Capacity

This step, which implements an execution looping construct, corresponds to a Quick Test's Iteration entity.

This Iteration step is characteristic of Control Plane tests.

The Iteration step has the following parameters:

  • retriesNumber: The Load type used during the test iterations. Only Sweep is available.

  • retryInterval: The number of seconds to wait before re-attempting to create tunnels. The default is 30 seconds.

  • incrementRetryInterval: The delay in seconds, between subsequent tunnel attempts. The default value is 1 second.

  • TunnelCapacityRate: The desired rate at which tunnels will be established (tunnels/second).

  • TunnelCapacityMinConcurrentTunnelsStep: The initial number of tunnels that a test negotiates in the first iteration.

  • TunnelCapacityMaxConcurrentTunnelsStep: The maximum number of concurrent tunnels that a test negotiates during iteration. The test runs (raises tunnels and creates traffic) as long as the stop criteria is not met or until this number of tunnels is reached.

  • TunnelCapacityStepConcurrentTunnelsStep: The number of tunnels is incremented by this amount with each iteration
