Description: Color of the S-VLAN tag for the test traffic. This is directly related to the value of the DEI bit configured in the VLAN tag of the test traffic. Green traffic will have its DEI bit set to 0 while Yellow traffic will have its DEI bit set to 1. Green test traffic is generated based on the bandwidth configured in the test profile. Yellow traffic is generated based on the excess-bandwidth parameter. Finally, if the user selects green-yellow-red, the yellow traffic is generated at 1.25 * excess-bandwidth. This is used only when encapType is set to QinQ
What is cienaCesBenchmarkProfileEntrySColor?
Exactly as described, this sets the color of the S-VLAN tag, via the DEI bit, for this profile's test traffic, with green traffic carrying DEI 0 and generated up to the profile's configured bandwidth, while yellow carries DEI 1. This is the mechanism that actually implements the green-versus-yellow traffic distinction described by the profile's separate bandwidth and excess-bandwidth settings -- without this field correctly reflecting the intended color, a network device's own color-aware policing downstream would treat the traffic differently than the test operator intended. For example, a test meant to validate excess-traffic handling needs this correctly set so the yellow-marked traffic is actually generated with DEI 1, or a color-aware policer downstream would treat it as green and never exercise the excess-traffic policy the test is trying to check.
