NetDisturb software is a network emulator software (IPv4 & IPv6) generating user-defined impairments: latency, delay, jitter, bandwidth limitation, loss, duplication, modification of the packet content and more….
NetDisturb allows disturbing flows over IP networks helping to study the behavior of applications, devices or services in a “disturbed” network environment. NetDisturb is inserted between two Ethernet segments acting as a bridge and operates bi-directional packet transfer on Ethernet, Fast Ethernet and Gigabit network interface cards.
Applications
- Development assistance and debug of automatons for IP equipments: particularly for Set-Top Boxes operating in cable or telecom environments.
- Performance & Acceptance Tests: Qualify and evaluate the behavior of IP equipments (phone, fax, gateway, set-top box, IMS core, call server, application server, residential gateway, ADSL wireless router and more…), and etc.) and applications (audio and video streaming) over IP networks.
- Configuration and control of IP Equipments for product verification and test: Define different QoS levels in an Intranet or Internet environment to configure terminals, gateways and routers.
- Test Laboratories: NetDisturb provides repeatable QoS on different flows using configuration mode and values (loss, duplicate, delay, packet content impairment) defined by the user, and so re-create real world problems in the lab.
