The Snappi Open Traffic Generator Python Package
Project description
Create test case scripts once using the snappi
client and run them using a
traffic generator that conforms to the Open Traffic Generator API.
Install the client
pip install snappi
Start scripting
"""A simple test that demonstrates the following:
- A port that transmits an ethernet/vlan/ipv4/tcp flow
for a specified duration and a port that receives the packets.
- While the flow is transmitting the script prints out tx and rx statistics.
- Once all the packets have been transmitted the script will end.
