Type: TruthValue
Access: read-create
Description: Used to indicate whether the color bit of the test packet should be used to classifier the reflected packets or not. In color unaware testing, this should be set to false. Default is true.
What is cienaCesBenchmarkProfileEntryColorValidation?
Exactly as described, this controls whether the color bit, the DEI bit, of returning test packets is used by the classifier, with the description specifically noting this should be false for color-unaware testing, defaulting to true otherwise. Color-aware versus color-unaware testing is a real distinction in carrier SLA validation -- color-aware tests expect the network to treat green and yellow traffic differently, while color-unaware tests deliberately ignore that distinction -- so this single flag tells the classifier which testing philosophy the rest of this profile's results should be interpreted under. For example, a profile meant to validate that a network correctly treats yellow excess traffic differently from green would need this set to true, while a simpler capacity test not caring about color treatment at all would set it false.
