Introducing the Ethernet and
Fibre Channel Application
Fully integrated test solution for performance assessment of Fibre Channel
and Ethernet transport networks.
Complete EtherSAM™ (ITU-T Y.1564) test suite. EtherSAM is the new
standard for testing Ethernet mobile backhaul and commercial
services
Throughput, back-to-back, latency and frame loss measurements as
per RFC 2544 (bidirectional)
EtherBERT™ test functionality for assessing the integrity of Ethernet
services running on WDM networks
Multiple-stream generation and analysis, allowing quality of service
(QoS) verification through VLAN and TOS/DSCP prioritization testing
MPLS and PBB-TE support for complete carrier Ethernet validation
Capability to perform BERT, RFC 2544, EtherSAM, Frame Analyzer, and
Smart Loopback tests over IPv6.
Remote control capability through the Visual Guardian Lite software
TCP throughput measurements for assessing application data
transmission over a TCP connection
IPTV testing and analysis
LAN and WAN PHY capability in a single module
Packet jitter measurement to qualify Ethernet transport networks for
transmission of delay-sensitive traffic such as video and voice-over-IP
(VoIP)
FC-0, FC-1, and FC-2 logical layer configuration for Fibre Channel port
definition, testing, and performance analysis
Round-trip latency measurement and buffer-to-buffer credit estimation
1x, 2x, 4x, and 10x Fibre Channel traffic generation and BER testing
