On test elements
Each test has default parameters, which can be used as is or modified as needed. To obtain
the best results and find the best measurement methods for a target network, plan and
configure the tests to suit the network.
A test profile must be configured for each monitoring station separately. The same profile
can be used in several monitoring stations.
Modifying test parameters
If you wish to modify individual tests, see the instructions below. However, the tests will
work perfectly well even without modification. For each test, do the following:
1. Select the test from the profile and right-click the test
2. Select “Edit”
3. If desired, set the test duration (in seconds)
a. The test duration does not affect the running of the test; however, if the
test type is temporarily removed from the test set, the time specified is
spent in sleep mode, depending on the configuration
4. Select a test
5. Select a test type (parameter is visible)
6. For some tests, such as RTT ping, you may also do the following:
a. Select the interval, or the pause between pings
b. Select Sonar
c. Select an access point
d. Select an IP address
e. Select the number of bytes to be downloaded/uploaded
f. Select the number of repetitions
g. Select the client’s IP address policy:
i. DHCP in use (1)
ii. Static address (0) – enter address data
7. Select “Keep changes”
8. Select “Save all changes”
Configuring complex test profiles
Free editing makes it possible to create profiles for any imaginable purpose. One might want
to create fine-grain testing for a particular wlan network or it might want to test multiple
wlan networks in one profile.
Use case: fine-tuning existing profile
Use “Copy Element” and “Insert Element After” or “Insert Element Before” to multiply one
single test. Change parameters in each duplicate to achieve the desired effect. This could be
changing the ping packet size, changing the amount of data to be transferred or changing
