Abstract :
Nowadays, as the scale of IP network and the number of its users increasing, requirements for higher quality of service and better network security have significantly grown. Network test is an important way to ensure the efficiency and reliability of network. Protocol RFC2544 is an international standard to evaluate network equipments, and testers based on this protocol can achieve more accurate results. This article firstly outlines the contents of RFC2544, introduces algorithm design for the four test parameters presented by the protocol, and finally gives the solution to the technical problems during the implementation of the system.
