Abstract
According to one method, the method occurs at a first test device located inline between at least one traffic source and a network and/or system under test (NSUT), wherein the first test device is implemented using at least one processor and at least one memory. The method includes receiving, from a test controller, impairment rules generated from baseline metrics based on monitored live traffic for effecting traffic impairments; receiving traffic destined to the NSUT; impairing the traffic destined to the NSUT based on the impairment rules; sending the impaired traffic towards the NSUT, wherein the NSUT processes the impaired traffic; and sending, from the test device or a related tap, response information from the NSUT to the test controller for analyzing NSUT performance.
