Description
A: Currently you cannot guarantee no interference. pScheduler rtt test that execute the ping tool and OWAMP latency and latencybg tests that execute owping and powstream respectively, are considered background tasks and can be scheduled in parallel to each other as well as throughput tests. Given the frequency with which users prefer to run tools such as ping and owping (and powstream runs constantly), there would be very few tests slots available if this were not the case. This does not mean you cannot run these tests on the same interface, it just means some correlation of results may be necessary when debugging. It is recommended, though not required, you run these tests on separate interfaces from throughput.
