Methods and apparatus for assessing the quality of a data path including both layer-2 and layer-3 devices
摘要:
In some embodiments, an apparatus includes a layer-2 device operably coupled to a source device and a destination device and disposed within a data path (1) between the source device and the destination device, and (2) includes at least one layer-3 device. The layer-2 device receives a first test data unit from the source device, and defines a quality datum associated with processing the first test data unit. The layer-2 device defines a second test data unit based on the first test data unit that includes the quality datum associated with processing the first test data unit. The layer-2 device sends the second test data unit to the layer-3 device. The layer-3 device defines a quality datum associated with processing the second test data unit at the layer-3 device and defines a third test data unit based on the second test data unit.
