The powerful Traffic Generator extends the capabilities of the Xgig Analysis and Test Platform to create network traffic at line rate to stress test equipment during development and in-network.

　　The powerful Traffic Generator extends the capabilities of the Xgig Analysis and Test Platform to create network traffic at line rate to stress test equipment during development and in-network. Both GUI- and API-based interfaces allow users to control test equipment from simple direct commands to even the most complex regression tests automatically, making the Generator useful across a range of development, device bring-up, debugging, manufacturing verification, and in-field troubleshooting of equipment. The Generator’s advanced capabilities not only accelerate equipment development and troubleshooting, they also maximize tool investment.

　　Generates arbitrary traffic for SAS, SATA, STP, and SMP protocol traffic

　　100% traffic verification at line rate with hardware-based compare circuitry

　　Supports large-scale networks with industry’s highest port density

　　Generates cost savings through support of concurrent users

　　Comprehensively tests equipment limitations

　　Accelerates development and troubleshooting through full automation

　　Minimizes capital investment through scalable licensing

　　The Xgig Generator is a licensable option for Xgig multifunction blades. It may be used in conjunction with the Xgig Analyzer and other licensable functions to trigger the analyzer and receive arming signals.
