Test Packet Brokers

Test. Improve. Repeat.

Xena Networks light logo

Network Packet Broker’s (NPBs) rely on a variety of filtering options to segment incoming network traffic before it reaches security, application performance monitoring, or network forensic tools. This is essential because the throughput of such tools is limited, and each tool requires a different subset of traffic to maximize performance.

Testing packet brokers therefore involves simulating a wide variety of traffic – a task ideally suited to Xena’s Valkyrie and Vulcan product lines.

Testing NPB & TAPS

A manufacturer in India specializing in Network Packet Brokers and Network TAP solutions was dissatisfied with the stateless traffic generation and analysis solution they were using. It was expensive and the level of support was inadequate. Testing NPBs and TAPs requires segmenting incoming network traffic before it reaches e.g. security, application performance monitoring, or network forensic tools.

Application Emulation

Testing with realistic network traffic places the device under test (DUT) in a realistic network environment and delivers authentic results.

Emulation vs Simulation white paper cover

Emulation vs. Simulation for Layer 4-7

Testing with realistic application emulation is about emulating network traffic that contains realistic traffic patterns and content. Which is essential for providing guaranteed Quality-of-Service (QoS), and high degrees of Quality-of-Experience (QoE).

Advanced Layer 4 Replay white paper cover

Advanced 4 Layer Replay

Xena Advanced Layer 4 Replay provides stateful replay on top of its high-performance TCP stack, high scalability for performance verification and preserve correlation information across sessions for true emulation.
