Hi Bob,

Thanks for replying. In my understanding, when increasing the bitrate above
the bandwidth/throughput, it will increase the packet loss right? but in my
case, I increase to 9 Gbps and still not seeing any packet loss. Did
increasing window size will increasing packet loss? and why that can happen?

I am trying to simulate packet loss.

Thanks

Best Regards,
Zufar Dhiyaulhaq
