ABSTRACT:
Evaluation of label switched data units is disclosed. In a method, a data unit is received or obtained, and, when the data unit is a label switched data unit, a kind of an encapsulated data unit included in a message body of the data unit is determined by analyzing the message body. The method may be achieved as part of a network interface included on a board in a network testing unit and in a computing device.
