The SmartBits SmartMetrics and TeraMetrics and XD modules
offer "Dual Media" Ethernet connections on every test port. The user
can select a 10/100/1000 Mbps connection or a Gigabit Ethernet Fiber connection
on each port. The SmartBits test system can scale from two ports up to 768
ports, providing the highest density test platform in the industry. Each XD
module is capable of simulating the millions of clients and servers required to
fully test network systems. The modules can be used to test high-speed
internetworking between Ethernet interfaces, as well as other technologies in
the SmartBits system, such as ATM or Packet over SONET interfaces. Each XD
module can generate realistic traffic at different layers and measure specific
metrics for each layer. The TeraMetrics XD modules can simultaneously correlate
data plane tests with control plane traffic such as routing, to provide the most
realistic performance measurements. SmartMetrics XDmodules support testing at
Layers 2 and 3.
Dual Media 10/100/1000 Mbps and Gigabit Ethernet Fiber on
each port
Wire-rate traffic generation and analysis at Layers 2 and
3
Transmit millions of IP flows and analyze CoS and
DiffServ information
Run multiple protocols per port simultaneously to emulate
large routed networks. What is emulated on the control plane can be tested
with individual flows on the data plane
Realistic higher application traffic and protocol breadth
for Layer 4 to 7 testing
