Agilent N2X

-
Multi-services test solution

Infrastructure | MPLS/IP Core

 

Agilent N2X is the industry's most comprehensive test solution for testing the development and deployment of network services for converging network infrastructures. Service providers, network equipment manufacturers (NEMs), and component manufacturers can verify service attributes of entire networks end-to-end, while also isolating problems down to individual networking devices and subsystems.

Carrier networks are evolving towards a converged IP/MPLS infrastructure to more efficiently deliver revenue-generating services and lower network operating costs. A new generation of carrier-class devices characterized by terabit capacity and new levels of reliability, scalability and resiliency power these networks.

The Agilent N2X solution is the industry's first to combine leading-edge data services testing with carrier-grade infrastructure testing and emulation. The N2X solution set incorporates the strength of the RouterTester 900 to comprehensively verify the ultimate performance, scalability and resiliency of carrier grade services under realistic network operating conditions. Including the ability to stress both the network data and control planes, the Agilent N2X offers unparalleled test realism and scalability to verify the ultimate performance of carrier grade services and infrastructure.

  • Industry's leading multi-protocol emulation and traffic generation environment,
  • Extensive interface range (from Sonet/SDH, 10/100 Ethernet to OC-768c),
  • Patented real-time measurements,
  • Powered through a versatile GUI
  • Fully featured API

Scalability: Test extreme network conditions

The scalable performance of underlying carrier-grade devices is critical in the network's ability to efficiently deliver the new wave and density of services reliably and consistently. Only Agilent N2X, with the industry's highest layer 2/3 traffic and protocol scalability can test the ultimate performance of the device's ability to deliver network services.

  • Industry highest stream scalability through the generation and measurement of over 32,000 unique streams representing customer service levels (QoS) per port simultaneously.
  • Industry's highest port density to cost-effectively stress the devices and networks
  • Most Comprehensive network services coverage including Layer 2/3 MPLS VPNs, Multicast, VPLS and IPv6 based services.
  • Powerful protocol emulation to simulate complex real-world multi-protocol environments
  • Simultaneously test the control and data planes

Versatility: Test without boundaries

Agilent N2X simplifies scalable performance testing through unique ease of use features, which simplifies and accelerates complex test scenario configurations. This not only reduces the time required to learn how to use the tool, but also provides users with the versatility to test without boundaries and get the most of their testing time.

  • Versatile and interactive user interface
  • Flexible PDU Builder to build any type of encapsulation easily
  • Topology builder to quickly create complex multi-protocol network topologies
  • Comprehensive API and QuickTest library for complete automation and repeatability

Innovation: Industry leading solutions

N2X builds upon Agilent's long established reputation of innovation through continuous industry leadership in carrier routing test methodologies and test capability. Agilent N2X has spearheaded definition of test methodologies and procedures to evaluate cutting edge services such as Layer 2/3 MPLS VPNs and multicast. Furthermore, Agilent N2X has enabled network services innovation through the delivery of industry first solutions for VPLS, GMPLS and most recently 40G.

 

Companion Products

The Agilent NetworkTester is a highly scalable and flexible solution for performance testing L4-7 security and content networking devices. As a companion to N2X, the combined solution provides best in class testing across Layer 2-7.
