MONITOR MASTER – PRODUCT PORTFOLIO STATIONARY TESTING
1
data
Monitor Master can test a number of different IP-based services, such
as FTP, HTTP, ping, and DNS lookup. These tests can be conducted over-the-
air, or via a LAN connection or broadband DSL line.
FtP and httP
Monitor Master can connect to, upload, and download files from both
FTP and HTTP servers.
HTTP interactions can be managed through the methods described in
the Browsing section.
FTP and HTTP tests both record a number of KPIs, such as connection
time, throughput, download, and upload time.
dNs
Monitor Master can also perform domain name queries on domain
name servers. For each lookup, the user can specify which connection and
which domain name server to use. Testing returns a list of IP addresses or
resolved host names and the time taken to return the information.
Ping
Ping is widely used to test both availability of your network servers
and the latency experienced in the network. Ping tests can be configured
to send any number of packets to a destination server and will calculate
the average, minimum, and maximum round trip times along with the
percentage packet loss.
third-Party integration
Due to the flexibility of Monitor Master, other data-centric services can
easily be integrated into a test scenario. Skype, SyncML, VPN connectivity,
and iTunes are just a few examples of these.
voiP
Monitor Master can test VoIP, either peer-to-peer between two VoIP
parties where no SIP server is involved, or via a SIP Server which also enables
VoIP to Mobile or fixed testing. Many interesting KPIs can be recorded in-
cluding a speech quality PESQ score. You can also configure different codecs
such as G.711 u-Law and A-Law, G.723.1 / G.722 / G.726 / G.729, Speex
(8 and 16 kHz) / GSM 6.10 / iLBC. IP tracing (PCAP) is integrated into the
VoIP solution to allow detailed analysis of the a VoIP session.
