• Huawei Selects Spirent to Validate Performance and Scale of Latest Data Center Solution Oct 15, 2012Spirent today announced that Huawei selected Spirent TestCenter to verify the performance of the newly launched CloudEngine 12800 series data center switches. This test of 384 ports of 10G Ethernet was conducted at massive scale under the most stressful yet realistic conditions, representing China’s first highest port density and TRILL and test.

Networks

• Packet loss over a certain threshold is the underlying cause of many network issues, including excessive TCP retransmits, leading to latency at the upper layer and a corresponding poor user experience. It is important to baseline the customer’s network to establish the quality of the underlying packet transport prior to doing device or service testing

HTTP Performance

• Most business applications are transported over HTTP and HTTPS. This test is used to deliver a report on the ability of the customer’s end to end (or site-to-site) infrastructure to support the HTTP and HTTPS protocols for thousands of users and dozens of servers.

Packet Loss with QoS

• Verify your DSCP policies on your routers are working as planned
• Prove to your customers that even with subscription overload, your DSCP implementations are meeting the requirements for today’s resource-hungry Enterprise networks

Site-to-Site with SLAs

• Match your SLAs with traffic high-water marks by sending maximum allowable traffic loads with Spirent’s Enterprise test tool
• Verify Latency is within tolerances, no matter how far the distance between points
• Control both C1s from a single browser interface

Devices

QoS Through an Edge Router

• Validate DSCP policies and optional MPLS policies on your routers connected to your Service Providers
• Ensure configuration at turn up and on-going

Security Strength

• Stress the Security infrastructure, including Firewalls, to the maximum advertised performance while ensuring threats are blocked, and good applications get through
• Verify and assure Security policies are implemented correctly as written and designed

Services

IMAP Email Performance

• Characterize your Email server performance
• Plan upgrades armed with scaling numbers
• Ensure installations of Email servers are meeting capacity demands

Application Performance

• Produce a report for your customers or verify their ongoing Service Quality with the Spirent Application Performance test (this test includes a common mix of Enterprise protocols such as Email, HTTP, Video and SIP)
• Metrics are available on Video and Voice Quality, for all traffic types, on every port

Voice/Video/Data Performance

• Produce a specific report on Voice and Video quality in the presence of bursty data, while also measuring the number of lost packets
