TWAMP and TWAMP light

TWAMP(Two-Way Active Measurement Protocol,双向主动测量协议)是一种用于IP链路的网络质量测量技术,它使用UDP报文测量网络双向路径时延、抖动及丢包率。TWAMP-light是TWAMP协议的轻量级架构,简化了建立性能测量会话的控制协议,提高了测试性能。

如下TWAMP 与TWAMP light 主要区别在于Twamp 需要先使用TCP建立控制层面。

TWAMP 配置

Cisco XR 的路由器目前只支持作为Server, 不支持作为Client, 也就是说它只能进行测量报文的反射, 而测量报文的主动发起方是Control-Client端。

Control-Client 端我们选择使用github 上的一个基于python的脚本twampy.

===============================================================================

如上图, 首先TCP建立控制层面,再由Control-Client发送UDP 探针,携带Tx timeslot; Router 收到后添加Revieve Timeslot, 反射探针.

如上图,twamp light无control层面,只通过交互UDP探针;使用的端口号可以自己定义.

Performance Measurement

SR PM 这个feature 支持采用TWAMP Light encoding的方式进行直连链路的延迟性检测, 参考文章Configure Performance Measurement
