Are there any differences between versions 2.46 and 2.50 regarding the Netload test specifications?

Post

Have there been any changes to the Netload test specifications between versions 2.46 and 2.50? Were any tests added or modified?

If I run the V2.46 tests on the legacy Ubuntu-based system, are the results still comparable to those obtained on the new ETS-IPC platform (for 100 Mbit testing only)?

No, the test specifications have not changed between versions 2.46 and 2.50. The generated network load remains identical, and extensive validation testing was performed to ensure comparable results.
However, the traffic injection provided by the new test hardware may be more precise. As a result, while the results are expected to be highly comparable, it is not possible to guarantee 100% identical test outcomes between the legacy Ubuntu system and the new ETS-IPC platform.
