| Clear and show runtime counters with running traffic
| | [Documentation]
| | ... | Start traffic at specified rate then clear runtime counters on all
| | ... | DUTs. Wait for specified amount of time and capture runtime counters
| | ... | on all DUTs. Finally stop traffic
| | ...
| | ... | *Arguments:*
| | ... | - duration - Duration of traffic run [s]. Type: integer
| | ... | - rate - Rate for sending packets. Type: string
| | ... | - frame_size - L2 Frame Size [B] or IMIX_v4_1. Type: integer/string
| | ... | - traffic_profile - Name of module defining traffc for measurements.
| | ... | Type: string
| | ... | - unidirection - False if traffic is bidirectional. Type: boolean
| | ... | - tx_port - TX port of TG, default 0. Type: integer
| | ... | - rx_port - RX port of TG, default 1. Type: integer
