* A single or dual processor and PCH chip, except for System on Chip (SoC) cases
* DRAM memory size and frequency (normally single DIMM per channel)
* Specific Intel Network Interface Cards (NICs)
* BIOS settings noting those that updated from the basic settings
* DPDK build configuration settings, and commands used for tests

Connected to the DUT is an IXIA* or Software Traffic generator like pktgen or TRex,
simulation platform to generate packet traffic to the DUT ports and
determine the throughput/latency at the tester side.
