Hi,

The -01 version:

1. Adds modifiers - dynamic data field update functionality to the 
generator model and example configuration where action type (increment, 
decrement or random), offset, bitmask and repetition count can be 
configured.

2. Removes the Ethernet specific static data fields src-mac-address, 
dst-mac-address and ether-type from the generator model. Those can be 
configured with the general frame-data mechanism.

3. Editorial changes proposed on the mailing-list now applied.


A good usecase for the added modifier functionality is a RFC2889 
benchmark where one would use that to test the MAC address learning 
limit of the DUT. This is now added as a project for the upcoming 
hackathon and hopefully we can validate the models with some running 
code in the same style this was done for the RFC2544 benchmark.
