NETWORK EMULATION, IMPAIRMENT GENERATION & ANALYSIS

As users demand faster response times and more complex data from their applications, the networks carrying this data are placed under immense pressure to meet these expectations.

Many organisations overlook the importance of emulating real world delays and impairments and often move critical applications straight onto new and untested production networks. Failure to test network variables such as latency, packets being dropped, delivered out of order, duplicated or corrupted will have serious performance implications for any applications running on untested networks.

These network test solutions can accurately simulate realistic real world network behaviour and error conditions in the lab. The ability to generate data, capture data, replay captured files, increase latency and inject errors allows users to fully test network conections. Controlling which data connections are delayed/impaired allows other critical connections to pass through unaffected.
