Apposite Traffic Jam Network Traffic Generation Tool

Description

Apposite’s TrafficJam™ is a high-performance, low-cost test tool that generates up to 1 Gbps of TCP and UDP traffic for measuring the capacity of networks and networking equipment. This light-weight, portable device generates stateful TCP connections that provide realistic responses to changing network conditions. TrafficJam’s flexible configuration options allow you to match real traffic or test the effect of different TCP parameters on network performance. Validate throughput, track packet loss, and measure latency with the accuracy of valid traffic.
With TrafficJam’s easy to use, browser-based GUI configuration is quick and simple, and the live graphs and statistics allow for real-time monitoring of connections.
Apposite’s TrafficJam™ Capabilities:

• Send and receive up to 20 separate TCP connections and UDP streams simultaneously.
• Generate 1 Gbps of traffic through each of the two separate ethernet test ports.
• Assign up to 20 separate IP addresses (IPv4 or IPv6) per port.
• Use multiple devices to test across networks to separate physical locations or a single device to run loop testing in a lab
• Run each traffic stream once, multiple times or continuously and analyze data in real time.
• Group connections to run simultaneously and graph all streams’ data together.
