Can they run 4 YouTubeTV streams or can they run 20? Can they download a file at 5 megabits/s or 15 gigabits/s?
There's not a problem to be solved, but information of a variety of types to be gleaned for a variety of purposes.
Most SLAs only cover on-net services, I recommend having a good on-net server for testing purposes and knowing your immediate upstream and peer upstreams test points. I do recommend that most carriers have an iperf3/iperf2 test point. You may find your carriers have one as well, even if it's not listed in their support pages. I've found this useful when you suspect some problem, including a link hashing problem that only impacts a few flows. - jared -- Jared Mauch | pgp key available via finger from jared@puck.nether.net clue++; | http://puck.nether.net/~jared/ My statements are only mine.
