SUT2 and TG -are unused. -sical connectivity between SUTs and to TG is provided using -different NIC model. Currently installed NIC models include: - -Performance tests involve sending Netconf requests over localhost to the -Honeycomb listener port, and measuring response time. - -Note that reported performance results are specific to the SUTs tested. -Current LF FD.io SUTs are based on Intel XEON E5-2699v3 2.3GHz CPUs. SUTs with -other CPUs are likely to yield different results. - -For detailed LF FD.io test bed specification and physical topology please refer -to `LF FDio CSIT testbed wiki page -<https://wiki.fd.io/view/CSIT/CSIT_LF_testbed>`_. - -Performance Tests Coverage --------------------------- - -As of right now, there is only a single Honeycomb performance test. Measuring -response time for a simple read operation, performed synchronously and using -single (not batch) requests. - -Currently the tests do not trigger automatically, but can be run on-demand from -the hc2vpp project. - -Performance Tests Naming ------------------------- - -CSIT |release| follows a common structured naming convention for all -performance and system functional tests, introduced in CSIT |release-1|. - -The naming should be intuitive for majority of the tests.
