pkt_gen: MoonGen start rates not correct
The VSPERF traffic profile for starting rate is in a percentage of line rate. MoonGen programs its starting rate as Mpps. Therefore the traffic profile for VSPERF needs to be converted to a MoonGen format. There was a hardcoding of 14.88 that was used for the starting frame rate for all frame sizes. This needs to be corrected to take into account all frame sizes. JIRA: VSPERF-350 Change-Id: Ied71668a560d7d2b03483f9a1192dd2fb4965996 Signed-off-by: bmichalo <bmichalo@redhat.com>
