General Network Performance Levels Clause Samples

General Network Performance Levels. 7.1 The general network performance levels are defined by "transit delay" in milliseconds and "packet loss" ("General Network Performance Levels"). Transit Delay 7.2 The transit delay will be established by measuring the time taken to send an IP packet and receive an acknowledgment to that IP packet sent from the Central Point to an access router in a TWI Point of Presence or a remote end router in the USA which terminates Telstra's cable connection between Australia and the USA. The transit delay will be measured for each access router and remote end router in the TWI Network. The minimum transit delay for each access router and remote end router in each Month will be noted ("Monthly Minimum"). 7.3 Telstra will use best efforts to ensure that : 7.3.1 the time taken in any Month for an IP packet to travel between the Central Point and the TWI access router to which the Customer is attached at the TWI Point of Presence is no greater than twice the Monthly Minimum for that access router; and 7.3.2 the time taken in any Month for an IP packet to travel between the Central Point and the remote end router is no greater than twice the Monthly Minimum for that remote end router. Packet Loss 7.4 Packet loss will be measured by sending IP packets at random from the Central Point to each access router in the TWI Network and to each remote end router in the USA which terminates Telstra's cable connection between Australia and the USA. The IP packets will then be counted, a loss figure determined and the percentage loss calculated. These percentages will be averaged each Month to produce a Monthly average. 7.5 Telstra will use best efforts to ensure that the average packet loss for any Month is no greater than 3%. 1 In this Service Schedule the following words have these meanings: Access Bandwidth means the access line speed of the Interface provided or derived by limiting SIR and PIR values up to the access speed of the Physical Bandwidth expressed in Mbit/s.
