LANforge-ICE/FIRE
IP Network Emulator / Traffic Generator
LANforge-ICE – IP Network Emulator that enables the insertion of various impairments in both directions of IP network –
LANforge-ICE is an IP network emulator designed to introduce various impairments in both directions of IP network on Ethernet with ease of operation.
▮Key Features – Easily Emulating Network Conditions –
- – Simulate real-world IP network impairments such as packet loss, drops, latency, and jitter by user settings.
- – Bridge two Ethernet interfaces to transparently emulate WAN conditions on network segment, enabling testing without modifying the target network.
- – Accurately replicate network degradation caused by packet loss and delays, including low-quality network scenarios, bit flips, and forced modification of specific bytes.
- – Utilize ICEcap, a software tool provided by Candela, to record real network latency characteristics and reproduce network conditions with LANforge-ICE.
- – Suitable for a wide range of testing applications, from individual network equipment validation to comprehensive system-level network evaluations.
