Network Monitoring & Simulationwith IPNetSim™ IPN600 series
IPNetSim™ is an IP network simulator that simulates impairments commonly found in IP Networks, such as bandwidth constriction, congestion, packet jitter, packet delay, packet bit errors, packet loss and other conditions.
The new IPNetSim™ IPN600 series (IPN601 1Gbps Model and IPN610 10Gbps Model) offers 1 or 10 Gbps multi rate capability with four 1 or 10 Gbps SFP+ ports
Document Number IPN600-1.3-08

Key Features• Supports aggregate capacity of 40 Gbps - two pairs of SFP+ ports
• Can simulate two separate 10 Gbps full-duplex links - each emulation engine can simulate up
to 15 different links.
• Accurately simulate links from 100 bits per second up to 10 Gbps.
• Supports 10 Gbps SFP+, 1 Gbps SFP, 1/10 Gbps dual-rate SFP+ transceiver, as well as 1 or 10
Gbps direct attach cables.
• Each emulation port is limited to a packet processing rate of 4.25 million packets per second and
an aggregate limit of 17 million pps.
• Easy-to-use GUI provides the responsiveness of an application with the convenience of a standard
web browser.
• Packets assigned to individual link by any combination of IP address, VLAN, MPLS label, port
number, or any other packet field.

Emulation Engine
• Functions as a layer 2 bridge connecting two LAN segments, forwarding packets received on one port across to the other port and applying the configured emulation conditions between a pair of Ethernet ports
IPNetSim™ IPN600 Series
Document Number IPN600-1.3-08
12
Emulation Paths
• Up to 15 separate paths (emulated WAN links) may be configured within each Emulation Engine.
• WAN link can be any type of wide-area network connection between two sites including terrestrial private lines, shared networks such as the Internet, and specialized satellite or wireless networks.
• The WAN access device is usually a router, but can also be a cable or DSL modem or other type of device that connects an entire site or a single user to the wide-area network.
• Each path can be configured with its own bandwidth, delay, loss, and other WAN properties.

Point-to-Point Network
• T1 or OC-3 lines directly connecting two sites are point-to-point connections.

Packet Classifier
• Classifiers are set of rules that specify which packets are sent over which paths.
• Each classification rule includes an action that specifies whether matching packets are sent over
one of the configured paths, dropped, or forwarded without emulation.

Command Line Interface
• Provides a command line interface (CLI) in addition to browser-based graphical user interface that
can be accessed via the CONSOLE interface or through a Telnet or SSH connection.
• Provides the following subset of the functionality available in the IPNetSim™ GUI
Configure emulation parameters of any path
Turn emulation on or off for any engine
Configure the management IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway
• Following management and troubleshooting features are only available through the CLI:
ARP and PING commands
Reinitialize the unit to factory settings

Graphs
• Throughput graphs of traffic over any path are shown in the main window.
• The graph can show the throughput in either direction of a path or both directions together.
• Throughput for traffic that bypasses emulation can also be graphed.
