Re: Platform capasity for UDP-packets!?

 

Hi Jussi,


We have tested ping from ST1 to GW with
*iperf -c 192.168.18.42 -u -b 10m*
*iperf -c ***192.168.18.42* -u -b 60m
**iperf -c ***192.168.18.42* -u -b 100m *

If you are using the default IP configuration you should use 192.168.42.1 as destination address because with your command, you does not send your traffic through OpenSAND. With iperf it is recommended to use 192.168.42.3 that is the tun interface address to be sure that the server report will be correctly received.

Moreover, there is a lot of configuration parameters to change to expect reaching high rates and return link is limited to approximately 70Mb/s: 65Mb/s CRA + 8Mb/s RBDC.
The configuration parameters to be changed are:
Global>global>up_return_band: increase bandwidth and symbol_rate in carriers_distribution ST1 >dvb_rcs_tal: increase rt_fixed_bandwidth (CRA), fifos size_max (for BE if you don't use QoS) and max_rbdc



It seems even 100 bandwidth go trough without loss almost rate of 90Mbits/s. I´d like make sure that encapsulation really work? I undestood that installation from packets includes these plugins.
For the encapsulation, by default you have AAL5/ATM on return link and ULE/MPEG2-TS on forward link. You can install the packets for GSE encapsulation that will be available on forward link.
