Description
Amplify Traffic to Test Networks and Devices at Scale
Quickly and easily assess complex network topologies by generating line rate stateless traffic and emulating millions of traffic flows. Ensure network performance, QoS policies, and resiliency at scale by stress testing with an extensive mix of applications and protocols.
Benefits
- Quickly configure complex traffic flows to mimic the real traffic on your network.
- Generate a city-scale of network traffic by amplifying a single flow into millions of flows.
- Ensure network and device performance even at peak load times with high traffic volume.
- Identify and resolve performance issues before they reach your customers.
- Mitigate the risks associated with new application rollouts and system implementations.
- Troubleshoot crashes and bugs to identify the cause of application failure and build fixes faster.
More Than a Packets Generator
Beyond simply performing a dropped packets test, you need to replicate real-life network traffic patterns, including weekdays vs. weekends, daily peak period and FDMI (fixed daily measurement interval) and other peak events by specifying:
- Ramp-up
- Ramp-down
- Number of iterations
- Total duration
- Traffic stream distribution
- The network traffic generator‘s ability to create custom streams is crucial, enabling parameters like IP address, MAC address and VLAN to be incremented in a set pattern or randomized.
Apposite Technologies’ TrafficEngine delivers all this and more. You can use our network traffic generator to configure traffic streams and emulate endpoints at a high scale.
The Network Traffic Generator Appliance of Choice
With TrafficEngine, you can create up to 512 unique streams per port with as many as 1 million flows per stream. Our network traffic generator appliance allows you to use repeat, fixed, increment, decrement or user-defined criteria on the fly to edit packet header fields and payloads. It supports more than 130 predefined and customizable layer 2-7 header templates, like TCP, IPv4, IPv6, UDP, SIP, HTTP and RTP.
TrafficEngine enables you to test, troubleshoot and optimize even the most complex network topologies. It is ideal for testing high-scale readiness and evaluating site to site application performance.
TrafficEngine generates insightful real-time reports, detailing important information like aggregate statistics on a per-port and per-stream basis. You can even download per-stream and per-port stats in a CSV file. There’s also an Offline Analyzer that allows you to visualize long-duration tests graphically.
