Mu Dynamics App-ID Test Content

The App-ID Test Content package provides the ability to quickly test the sophisticated signature

and pattern recognition capabilities of application-aware systems. This package contains a set of

ready-to-run Mu test scenarios for a wide range of popular web-based applications including peer-

to-peer (P2P), instant messaging (IM), and Social Media domains, examples - BitTorrent, AOL IM,

Jabber, Facebook, Twitter, Skype and many more. These test assets can immediately be used for

pass-through testing of app-aware devices and services for functional, fuzz and scale testing. The

Mu Test Suite provides additional flexibility by allowing the modification and extension of the test

content, or the ability to build additional test content based on any network traffic capture.

The App-ID Test Content is designed for Tier-1 Operators and App-Aware Vendors

covering the following use-cases:

Tier-1 Operators - Policy Enforcement for QoS

By setting policies to control QoS so that a popular new application doesn’t consume all available

bandwidth and impact other applications, Mu’s App-ID Test Content can be used to ensure that the

configurations of the policy enforcement devices are correct, and that the policy is being enforced

appropriately. With Mu Studio Scale, tens of thousands of application profiles can be simultaneously

sent through the app-aware gateway to evaluate its ability to detect these applications and apply

policy to them. With Mu Studio Fuzz, application profiles can be intelligently malformed to test the

error handling capabilities of the system and the effect it has on the end user experience.

App-Aware Vendors – Testing the Effectiveness of DPI, IPS, Firewall ALG’s, DLP,

UTM, Content Filtering, and Lawful Intercept Capabilities

Mu’s App-ID Test Content can be used to ensure the effectiveness of the application-aware

gateway capabilities to ensure the latest application profiles are being detected and handled

accordingly. With Mu Studio Verify, functional verification can be performed to test the classification

and prioritization capabilities of the device. With Mu Studio Scale, tens of thousands of application

profiles can be simultaneously sent through the app-aware gateway to evaluate its ability to detect

these applications and apply policy to them. With Mu Studio Fuzz, application profiles can be

intelligently malformed to test the error handling capabilities of the system and the effect it has on

the end user experience.

App-ID Content The App-ID Test Content includes tests for a range of popular applications including peer-to-peer

(P2P), instant messaging (IM), and Social Media.

Scale Testing Scale Testing enables thousands of application profiles to be simultaneously sent through the app-

aware gateway to evaluate its ability to detect and apply policy to them.

Fuzz Testing Fuzz Testing enables application profiles to be intelligently malformed to test the error handling

capabilities of the system.

Mu TestCloud Mu TestCloud is an online community containing free, ready-to-run test content for your Mu Test Suite

system. Created by Mu customers, partners and employees, Mu TestCloud allows you to share and

collaborate with other testers and leverage test assets for testing your own products or services.
