WAN emulation

When you’re preparing to roll out new applications, services or entire systems, accurately gauging performance levels across your WAN, MAN or LAN is an essential part of the project. With a Network Emulator from Xpertex, you can protect your existing network investments and prevent service disruption for end-users.

The extreme versatility of the Network Emulator makes it easy to configure parameters that influence traffic flows to emulate a specific virtual interface (VI). These include bandwidth, latency, packet loss, delay, errors and packets transmitted out of sequence. This unique approach enables the accurate gauging of a wide range of symmetrical and asymmetric circuits, such as:

• High-latency WANs (national, international and satellite)
• Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line (ADSL)
• Wireless networks (3G, Wi-Fi, WiMAX)
• Jittery networks that can seriously affect VoIP deployments
• Networks that lose/damage traffic
• QoS-based networks (Multi-Protocol Label Switching — MPLS)
• Point-to-point (Asynchronous Transfer Mode — ATM)
• VLANs
• Routed networks
