Features:
The Spirent C100-M4 is part of the Spirent Test Center platform.
The Spirent C100-M4 Multispeed Performance 100/50/40/25/10G appliance
combines Spirent’s industry-leading Layer 2–3 traffic generation and analysis with powerful network emulation and application layer protocols
for emulating a wide range of device types, users and protocols. The C100’s flexibility makes it perfect throughout the test lifecycle for functional, performance and benchmark testing of data center and service provider network infrastructure and evolving SDN and NFV technologies.
Applications
• SDN and data center: Validate forwarding performance and functional
capabilities of Software Define Networks (SDN) with ultra-low latency
and flexible port density. Supports key technologies like VXLAN, OpenFlow, PCE, Segment Routing and BGP-LS
• Device benchmarking: Test using IETF RFC 2544, RFC 2889 and RFC
3918 methodologies with easy test setup using dynamically bound traffic
and automated wizards
• Core and edge routers & switches: Verify scale, reliability,
performance of Layer 2 & 3 services including data, multicast, and video
delivered via unicast routing, multicast routing, switching, and MPLS
VPN technologies
• Carrier Ethernet: Verify scale, reliability, performance of Ethernet
services delivered via Ethernet OAM, MPLS-TP, VPLS, PWE3
Psuedowires, bridged Ethernet, packet transport protocols, or
combinations of these technologies
• Subscriber emulation: Verify setup & teardown of thousands of access
subscribers using different services over various tunneling technologies
(VLAN, L2GRE, MPLS, VPNs, VPLS, etc…) under normal or exceptional
traffic conditions
