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, in single port configuration, has to be
executed in conjunction with a remote unit. The remote unit 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 testing between two
compatible units providing independent results for each test direction. The
results from local-to-remote and remote-to-local are available on the local
testing unit.
The Dual Port topology allows simultaneous and bidirectional traffic
generation and analysis at 100 percent wire-speed at any packet size.
