Fixed transmitted frames can be created and sent in any size or combination.
For example, test frames can be sent repeatedly using a pre-defined
setting such as 64 bytes, 128 bytes, or 256 bytes. In addition, it
is possible to send the MAC address while incrementing it within
a set range. |
With variable frames, up to four fields can be varied at the same
time. For example, the MAC address, VLAN, Priority and IP address
can be varied as the frame is being sent. As the frame length can
also be varied at the same time, traffic testing comes close to
approximating actual network conditions. |
There is template for frequently used frames such as IPv4, IPv6,
TCP, UDP, ICMP, and IGMP transmit frames and an easy-to-edit protocol
header. Furthermore, a checksum and CRC value can be added to the
protocol to detect abnormal frames. It is also possible to add VLAN,
MPLS, and EoMPLS to the tag information in Layer 2 and 3.
