Common Options#
Duration
The duration in seconds of the time used in each trial for the actual measurement. This does not include the test setup and teardown phases so the total duration of a test will be longer.

Delay Settings#
Traffic-to-Join Delay

Leave-to-Stop Delay
The delay between calculating the Join latency and sending the Leave request.
