My test setup:

So, given that the DUT is the= only real constraint in the network, what
do you expect = to see from this setup?

Given that the= probably DUT can't forward at Gb/s, and it certainly can't
shape anything, it's gonna drop packets, and it's probably gonna drop th= em in
Rx, having overrun the Rx-queue (so tail-drop)=2E = If there is too much ram
(bufferbloated), then you'll see= different results=2E=2E=2E

Setting ingress/= egress to 10Mbit/s I expected to see the speed
measureme= nts bounce around those limits with the ping times staying in
the low double digits of ms=2E What I saw however, was the data rate= s
going well past 10Mbit limit and pings up to 2000 ms= =2E

This is what I've seen in prior rr= ul testing using a the 50/10 cable
link at our office an= d my 25(ish)/6 link at my apartment and a well
connected= server on the net=2E That however was using QoS and not SQM=2E

Its that a reasonable expectation?
