byteblower_test_framework.constants module

Constants used along the ByteBlower Test Framework.

Added in version 1.2.0: Keep all commonly used constants together.

byteblower_test_framework.constants.DEFAULT_FRAME_LENGTH: int = 1024

Default length for a frame.

This is the Ethernet frame size excluding FCS.

Changed in version 1.2.0: Moved common constants to the byteblower_test_framework.constants module.

byteblower_test_framework.constants.DEFAULT_FRAME_RATE: float = 100.0: Default rate at which the frames are transmitted in frame blasting based flows (in frames per second).

Changed in version 1.2.0: Moved common constants to the byteblower_test_framework.constants module.

byteblower_test_framework.constants.DEFAULT_G711_PACKETIZATION: int = 20: Default packetization used for G.711 voice traffic simulation. Defined in number of milliseconds

Changed in version 1.2.0: Renamed from DEFAULT_PACKETIZATION and moved common constants to the byteblower_test_framework.constants module.

byteblower_test_framework.constants.DEFAULT_IPV4_NETMASK = '255.255.255.0': Default netmask for an IPv4Port

Changed in version 1.2.0: Moved common constants to the byteblower_test_framework.constants module.

byteblower_test_framework.constants.DEFAULT_IP_DSCP: int = 0: Default value for IP Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP).

Changed in version 1.2.0: Moved common constants to the byteblower_test_framework.constants module.

byteblower_test_framework.constants.DEFAULT_IP_ECN: int = 0: Default value for IP Explicit Congestion Notification (ECN).

Changed in version 1.2.0: Moved common constants to the byteblower_test_framework.constants module.

byteblower_test_framework.constants.DEFAULT_NUMBER_OF_FRAMES: int = -1: Default number of frames to transmit in frame blasting based flows.

Changed in version 1.2.0: Moved common constants to the byteblower_test_framework.constants module.

byteblower_test_framework.constants.INFINITE_NUMBER_OF_FRAMES: int = -1: Number of frames to define when you want to transmit forever in frame blasting based flows.

Changed in version 1.2.0: Moved common constants to the byteblower_test_framework.constants module.

byteblower_test_framework.constants.UDP_DYNAMIC_PORT_START: int = 49152

First available UDP / TCP port number for dynamic assignment.

It is the fir port number which is not in the range of port numbers allocated by IANA for System Ports or User Ports.

The range 49152-65535 (2^15 + 2^14 to 2^16 - 1) contains dynamic or private ports that cannot be registered with IANA.
