EtherSAM (Y.1564)
EtherSAM (Y.1564)
EtherSAM can simulate all types of services that will run on the network
and simultaneously qualify all key SLA parameters for each of these
services. Moreover, it validates the QoS mechanisms provisioned in the
network to prioritize the different service types, resulting in more accurate
validation and much faster deployment and troubleshooting.
The EtherSAM (Y.1564) test has to be executed in conjunction with a
remote module. The remote module can be either in loopback
configuration for unidirectional testing or in EtherSAM
Dual Test Set mode
for bidirectional testing.
The Dual Test Set test allows bi-directional test between two compatible
modules providing independent results for each test direction. The results
from local-to-remote and remote-to-local are available on the local testing
unit.
