Application Latency (Screw-to-Screw) Test Results

As described in Chapter 7, "Testing the CPwE Solution," screw-to-screw tests were conducted to measure the application latency and jitter and identify the impact a path change has on the application latency and jitter. In "Test Result Analysis." this data is summarized and used to estimate the latency added by additional switch hops. Figure C-11 to Figure C-23 show the test results from each screw-to-screw test iteration.
