Tutorial # 1: Transmitting Your First Data
In this example, we transmit a continuous 64-byte packet stream, with a destination address of 00 00
00 00 00 00, a source address of 00 00 00 00 00 00, incrementing data bytes, and good CRC values.
The
Resources
pane appears on the left side of the
IxExplorer
window. Under
Resources
on the
pane, there is
Chassis Chain01
, and under this there is
Chassis 1
. The round indicator on the left
side of Chassis 1 should be green, indicating that the IxExplorer software has established
communications with the server agent running on the chassis.
To transmit data, do the following:
1. Double-click Chassis 1 , and you see all Cards that are installed in the chassis, labeled by the
number of the slot that they occupy.
2. Select one of the cards to send and receive the packet stream.
3. Install a jumper cable from port 1 of that card to port 2 of that card. If the card is a 10/100 Mbps
Load Module, use an Ethernet crossover jumper cable. If the card is a Gigabit Load Module, use a
duplex fiber jumper cable.
4. Double-click the card in the IxExplorer pane to display the ports for that card.
5. Right-click port 1, and click Start Transmit
.
6. You are now transmitting your first packet stream from port 1 on the card to port 2 on the card.
The indicators on the front of the card reflects this, with the
Tx/Coll LED
on port 1 lit, and the
Rx/Err LED
on port 2 lit. Both LEDs should be green, indicating good data. You can stop the
packet stream by right-clicking the card, and clicking Stop Transmit .
To look at the packet stream configuration for the stream of packets that you just sent, you can click
Packet Streams
under the port in the pane, and then double-click packet stream 1 that appears in
the window to the right of the pane. This corresponds to the first of the streams of data to be
transmitted. When you double-click, a tabbed dialog box opens, which contains all of the user-
definable parameters for Packet Streams configuration.
