Methodology: Multi-Thread and Multi-Core
----------------------------------------
TRex is installed and run on the TG compute node. The typical procedure is:
- - If the TRex is not already installed on TG, it is installed in the
- suite setup phase - see `TRex intallation`_.
- - TRex configuration is set in its configuration file
- ::

**Measuring packet loss**
- - Create an instance of STLClient
- - Connect to the client
- - Add all streams
- - Clear statistics
- - Send the traffic for defined time
- - Get the statistics

If there is a warm-up phase required, the traffic is sent also before test and
the statistics are ignored.
