“The BreakingPoint equipment is one of only a handful of devices capable of performing this type of ‘real world’ testing concentrating on Layer 4 to 7 and is the only one to prove capable of doing it at line-speeds in excess of 10 Gbps."

"The sophistication of today's networks demands that we test equipment under a variety of real-world traffic conditions. Proper testing of a wide range of use cases requires the ability to generate blended application traffic with high session counts while maintaining multi-Gigabit throughput. BreakingPoint's extensible framework enables NSS Labs to efficiently create repeatable and scalable tests containing extremely complex applications.”

10 Gigabit Ethernet-Class Test Tool Performance and Feature Evaluation

High Performance Testing Systems for Content-Aware Networks

Next Generation Networks and Network Equipment Demand a Next Generation Testing Platform

The volume and complexity of network traffic continues to grow exponentially, driving demand for new content-aware network devices and services. In the race to deliver differentiated products to market, you need a radically new class of testing system to:

  • Accelerate development and time-to-market
  • Mitigate the risk of performance or security issues in production environments
  • Demonstrate superior performance in competitive situations
  • Reduce R&D costs

Unlike legacy testing tools that are architected for HTTP-only test environments, BreakingPoint delivers authentic converged business and recreational application traffic combined with live security attacks, all at speeds of 10 Gigabits per second and faster. These are the essential elements for effectively testing today’s content-aware networks and network devices.

With more than 4 times the application protocols, 700 times the TCP sessions, and 100 times the performance across protocols, only BreakingPoint gives you the components you need for today’s dynamic content-aware test environments in a single, easy-to-use device. Even as new application protocols and security threats emerge, BreakingPoint is the only company agile enough to deliver express applications to keep your product release on-time and on-target.

The High Performance 10 Gigabit Testing Platform for a Content-Aware World

Driving realistic enterprise network traffic to put today’s content-aware network equipment to the test requires serious computing horsepower. What once required racks of testing systems, now requires just one BreakingPoint system.

At the core of BreakingPoint’s application performance and security testing solution is our patent-pending Test Expression Engine™. It features multiple Field Programmable Gate Arrays, network processors, and an array of embedded processors to produce millions of real application data streams, while pushing security to the max.

BreakingPoint’s innovative testing platform was also designed with ease of use in mind with the ability to deploy quickly, automate tests and control the device under test. Designed as an all-in-one box that provides multiport and multiuser capabilities – we’ve raised the bar for testing content-aware networks and network equipment.

 

Highlighted Features:
  • 10 Gigabits per second and faster, 7.5 million simultaneous TCP sessions and 750,000 TCP/IP requests per second.
  • Supports transmissions and verification of up to 30 million packets per second at 64 byte packets.
  • An extensive library of pre-configured tests.
  • 1 Gigabit and 10 Gigabit models
  • Built-in power receptacle on the front of the system for power cycle testing of the device under test.
  • Built-in serial and Ethernet ports for controlling the device under test.
  • Point and click automation via Telnet, SSH and Serial for any device under test.
