All Rights Reserved. table of Contents Introduction This document is intended to provide terminology for the benchmarking of local area network (LAN) switching devices. It extends the terminology already defined for benchmarking network interconnect devices in RFCs 1242 and 1944 to switching devices. Although it might be found useful to apply some of the terms defined here to a broader range of network interconnect devices, this RFC primarily deals with devices which switch frames at the Medium Access Control (MAC) layer. It defines terms in relation to the traffic put to use when benchmarking switching devices, forwarding performance, congestion control, latency, address handling and filtering. Existing definitions RFC 1242 Benchmarking Terminology for Network Interconnect Devices should be consulted before attempting to make use of this document. RFC 1944 Benchmarking Methodology for Network Interconnect Devicescontains discussions of a number of terms relevant to the benchmarking of switching devices and should also be consulted. For the sake of clarity and continuity this RFC adopts the template for definitions set out i
