Description

In today’s digital world, it’s essential that the performance of content aware networks and Web applications are carefully tested to ensure that business transactions and communication are not impacted. The C100-S3-MP is a powerful Layer 4-7 stateful traffic performance solution that is capable of high throughput testing of highstrength bulk encrypted hyper-realistic traffic. Users now have the ability to test devices to their limits at line rate, simulating daily traffic to understand the impact under worst case scenarios.

Performance and Flexibility

The C100-S3-MP is available in multiple configuration options: 1G, 10G, 25G, 40G, 50G and 100G of Layer 4-7 application traffic. Testers are able to specify load variables and easily create tests with mixed traffic profiles emulating real-world network scenarios. With the available SSL/TLS acceleration module, the C100-S3-MP
can meet today’s most demanding test needs for encrypted traffic with high strength ciphers at massive scale.

Features & Benefits

• 100Gbps Line Rate Stateful Traffic—Provides the capability to generate over 100Gbps of line rate stateful Layer 4-7 traffic. Available in specific configurations for 1G to native 100G interfaces.
• Flexible Software Options—The C100-S3-MP is compatible with CyberFlood, providing web-based, easy -to-use yet powerful application testing, and with Avalanche for advanced directed one-ended and two-ended testing.
