The subpath-at-a-time tests can be robustly applied to critical infrastructure, such as network interconnections or even individual devices, to accurately detect if any part of the infrastructure will prevent paths traversing it from meeting the @@ -199,21 +199,21 @@ publication.

Reordering tolerance and diagnostic limitations, such as the size of the history buffer used to diagnose packets that are way out-of- order, must be specified in a FSTIDS. 8.

We also introduce some combined tests which are more efficient when networks are expected to pass, but conflate diagnostic signatures when they fail. 8.1. Basic Data Rate and Packet Transfer Tests We propose several versions of the basic data rate and packet transfer statistics test that differ in how the data rate is controlled. The data can be paced on a timer, or window controlled
