Software
VulcanManager is a free Windows-based application used for configuring, generating and analyzing stateful Ethernet traffic up to 40Gbps. VulcanManager supports TLS 1.2 performance testing e.g. handshakes per second, TLS throughput, concurrent TLS connections, etc., with different cipher suites and certificate key sizes on a DUT that decrypts traffic on one side and encrypts on the other.
Also included is VulcanAppMix, a library of application traffic and protocols in pcap format that makes it easy to set up large-scale realistic traffic from various applications, using pre-defined and customizable mix templates.
VulcanVE is the virtual edition of Vulcan. It can be installed on “off-the-shelf” hardware that meets the minimum specified requirements. It is managed using VulcanManager and is ideal for both lab testing of Ethernet-based network equipment as well as WAN testing. It can be downloaded here.
