== | == Problem == | ||
The Allegro Network Multimeter is connected to a mirror port or packet broker. By default, this makes it very hard to analyze a specific Link for bursts as the packet are aggregated on the mirror or packet broker port. | |||
Please note that this guide is based on the use case guide [[Network Burst Analysis]]. | |||
== Link Burst Measurement == | |||
By default, each Multimeter measures the Bursts per Interface at '''L2 Ethernet''' → ''' Burst Analysis''' | |||

Here you can configure the speed per link as the maximum speed. | |||
== MAC Burst measurement == | |||
To analyze a specific link, you can use the MAC burst analysis. This is shown at the tab '''MACs''' in the burst analysis. It allows to set a specific receive and send packet rate for one mac address. If you have an uplink, simply use the routers MAC address here and the specify the maximum receive and send rate of the routers uplink. | |||
In this example, I have used a test link with 250MBit/s downlink and 40MBit/s uplink for the Router Mac address. | |||
