Restrictions for speed test

Unbound loopback interfaces are not supported for speed test.

The speed test sends and receives traffic through the control plane, so the test result depends on the router’s punt/inject (control plane to data plane communication) efficiency and control plane CPU usage.

If the speedtest disable-backward-compatible-ip command is configured, site-to-site speed test with peer devices on older versions will fail.

The speedtest disable-backward-compatible-ip command is only supported through CLI add-on profile or CLI add-on template.
