Xena3918

Xena3918 is a Windows desktop application for advanced IP multicast network testing using one or more Xena test chassis, in accordance with RFC3918.

software

Xena3918 provides an easy-to-use port configuration panel that lets you add and remove ports, and assign IP addresses and port roles. Ports from multiple XenaBay and XenaCompact chassis can be freely mixed.

The tests can be performed using various framesizes, either as in-test variations or as multiple testruns each using a fixed frame size.

The multicast traffic can be configured to use the exact protocol headers needed. All fields in the protocol headers can be modified. The unicast traffic for mixed class and burdening tests can be specified separately in a similar fashion.
