v5 v6 3 3 = OTG Software User Manual For release 1.1.2 = 4 4 == Introduction == 5 ORBIT Traffic Generator is a tool to generate traffic for testing network performance. It is primary focus is to generate bulk data of various characteristics and use either TCP or UCP protocol to transport data. Also, the properties of each packet such as packet size, packet deliver time are all reported to OML or a local logfile. User can obtain certain measurements like throughput, packet loss by querying the OML database directly. Options to extract physical layer parameters are also availab e.5 ORBIT Traffic Generator is a tool to generate traffic for testing network performance.
