1. A method of characterizing a network device, comprising:
receiving, by a system having a processor, traffic information, wherein the traffic information describes a mix of traffic according to different application-level protocols, wherein the traffic information comprises information relating to a plurality of flows, each respective flow of the plurality of flows corresponding to a respective application-level protocol of the different application-level protocols; converting, by the system, the traffic information to a traffic profile that describes traffic according to a transport protocol; inputting, by the system, the traffic profile corresponding to the traffic information into a model stored in a non-transitory storage medium, wherein the model relates a performance characteristic of the network device to parameters associated with different types of traffic; and computing, from the model in response to the input traffic profile, the performance characteristic of the network device. |
