Agilent N2X Multicast Test Solution provides
realistic Internet-scale simulation for
comprehensive verification and stress testing
of edge routers, core routers, and networks that
are designed for routing IPv4 and IPv6 multicast
traffic.
Agilent N2X Multicast Test Solution
is ideally suited for integrated control
and data plane testing. The solution
incorporates emulation of:
PIM-SM/SSM (Protocol
Independent Multicast-Sparse Mode / Source-Specific Multicast) including IPv6 support
MSDP (Multicast Source Discovery Protocol)
The host side of IGMP (Internet Group Management Protocol) version 2 and version 3
Key Features
Stress/verify PIM-SM/SSM, and MSDP protocols
Simulate multiple PIM-SM and MSDP sessions associated with VLANs
Simulate PIM-SM/SSM over GRE tunnels to test multicast VPN devices and networks]
Simulate real-world multiprotocol environments and measure multicast protocol-specific parameters
Integrated Traffic and Multicast Routing for IPv4 and IPv6
Simulate multiple sources and destinations
Generate wire-speed (up to 10 Gb/s) unicast and multicast traffic and measure QoS parameters
Easy-to-use GUI that quickly configures physical interfaces and routing protocols
Tcl Application Programming Interface speeds the creation of custom test scenarios
