Need ability to start a specific traffic item, not all at once

[SerhiyBoikoPLV]

In the Ixia web UI you can select a single traffic item and send traffic from only that traffic item. Is it possible to do this using ixnetwork_restpy?

yes it is possible there are 2 ways 1) you apply everything to hardware and then you use Start on each traffic item individually

• advantage you can start other traffic items at different times
• disadvantages it will write to hw and use hw resources for all traffic item configured irrespective if you start them or not later
• example: TBD

2) you can disable the traffic items that you do not plan to use

• advantage: hw resources are used only by the enabled traffic items
• disadvantage: you cannot start disabled traffic items without doing enable/apply example: ixn.traffic.trafficItem.Enabled attribute
