Hello,
I am using the trail license for Network Virtualization to understand the concept and demo our client on licenses and benefits of Network virtulizaion within loadrunner.
As i was working on it, question came up on my mind, how does NV actually works.
I am trying to simulate a scenarios where Application servers(Data Center) located in Texas and users are trying to connect from different location and load generators are located in New York.
Scenario A)Users in New York, Load Generator in New York, application servers in Texas.
Scenario B) Users in Washington, Load Generator in New York, application servers in Texas.
In controller i have selected Virtual location settings
Under Virtual Location: Added the two locations(NY to TX and WA to TX)
After that i configured the settings as follow:
1)Select Virtual location definition Method--> Custon
2)Network Profile settings-->Gave Latency, Packet loss etc
3)Run time setting
And applied all above settings to the scenario and started the test.
After the test, i compared the response time between Scenario A and Scenario B and there was about 20-30% difference in response time.
I was wondering how this is calculated. Just giving the location name will simulate the network from particular location to Data Center?
Is my assumption correct. Please advise.
