I'm hearing that you MUST specify the collection ML at the determined MCT; optionally at other offered loads. Your wording isn't reflecting that. Also the last sentence isn't needed, as it's addressed later in the methodology of ML. To clarify my earlier mail on "transmit some learning frames to the DUT," - that text was taken from J. Perser's post of 12/18/01. I think such a statement (e.g., Priming the SUT) could be placed in section 3.1, test considerations, easily. And the balance of the I-D quickly checked for consistency. E.g., the 4th paragraph of the Latency methodology elevated to MUST. _______________________________________________ bmwg mailing list bmwg@ietf.org https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/bmwg
