What items does the Ethernet Tester mainly test?
Ethernet is the most common computer network technology in real life and the most widely used local area network. It includes standard Ethernet (10Mbit/s), Fast Ethernet (100Mbit/s) and 10G (10Gbit/s) Ethernet. The Ethernet interface on the computer, the Wi-Fi interface, the Gigabit and 10G Ethernet ports on the Ethernet switch and router, and the network cable are all components of Ethernet. Ethernet can be used in local area networks, wide area networks, and the Internet. Now the network has a trend of Ethernetization. Because it is simple and easy to use, it is very popular.
Ethernet tester, also known as network analyzer, is often used in the daily maintenance of network management and maintenance personnel. Ethernet tester can quickly solve network unreachable, slow network speed, packet loss, IP address conflict, network failure and ensure the smooth flow of the network. At the same time, Ethernet tester is also used to test the actual bandwidth, packet loss rate, delay, jitter and other performance indicators of the network to judge the good or bad performance of the network.
TFN handheld Ethernet tester is a necessary tool for network technicians and engineers when installing and maintaining their networks. It supports traditional and emerging technologies and can meet network application requirements including metropolitan area network/core network, data center, and commercial service test application requirements. So, what specific items does the TFN Ethernet tester mainly test?
1. Connectivity test: Supports PING, TRACE ROUTE and IP scanning functions to check the physical connection between network devices to ensure that cables and interfaces are working properly.
2. Virtual Cable Test (VCT): Tests the integrity of network cables, including short circuits, open circuits, crosstalk, cross wires and other problems. It can measure the length of the cable and find the location of the breakpoint.
3. Traffic test: Generates and analyzes network traffic, supports up to 16 business traffic generation, and supports receiving end traffic filtering statistics. By testing network bandwidth and throughput, it ensures that the network is still operating normally under high load.
4. Delay and jitter test: Measures the transmission delay and delay change (jitter) of data in the network, which is an important indicator for evaluating network performance, especially the performance of real-time applications (such as VoIP, video conferencing, etc.).
5. Data error detection: Supports 1-4 layer bit error rate test, which helps engineers identify network performance problems or hardware failures by detecting errors in network data packets.
6. Protocol analysis: Analyzes the traffic of different network layer protocols to identify possible protocol configuration problems or abnormal protocol behavior. Such as: RFC2544, Y.1564
RFC2544 test can freely select throughput, delay, packet loss rate, back-to-back test items, and can judge the test results through the clear test result table on the UI. The Y.1564 test confirms that the network can configure a single data stream to set CIR to select a single or mixed packet size for testing, and can also choose to perform hierarchical tests such as 25%, 50%, 75%, 100%, and 100%+EIR or a single rate for maximum value testing according to the set rate.
7. Penetration mode: Support 10M-10G rate penetration probe mode to achieve online monitoring, passive testing, and online fault diagnosis. And fault injection can be performed online.
8. Intelligent detection and loopback: Provides test functions such as port positioning, packet capture and loopback, and ensures the connectivity of each node data flow through four traffic loopback test methods (L1/L2/L3/L4).
9. Device configuration verification: Verify whether the configuration of network devices is correct, including IP address configuration, VLAN configuration, and support VLAN Q-in-Q test, MPLS test, etc.
Through the above test items, the Ethernet tester can help network engineers and technicians ensure the reliability, high performance and correctness of the network, and timely discover and eliminate network faults.
TFN Ethernet testers include 1000M Ethernet testers (T200K) and 10G Ethernet testers (T3000A). In addition, TFN has also developed a comprehensive network tester that integrates 1000M/10G Ethernet testing, E1 testing, PRI testing, V.35/V.24 testing, and OTDR/OPM/VFL testing functions. This greatly facilitates customers to choose the right product and successfully complete network fault testing and troubleshooting.
