| Alumnus has extensive experience
of nearly a decade in Network Testing domain; both in the tools as well as
test suites development, and hence carries a rich repertoire of experience in
the development of Automated Test Tools. These tools address a variety of testing
situations. Alumnus today can claim to have excellent understanding and experience
in developing Performance, Conformance and Interoperability Test suites for Networking
Protocols.
Our expertise includes
 |
Development of Simulators, Load Generators, Regression Tools, and Configuration
of entire test platform involving multiple tools, servers, workbench and proprietary
software for integration |  | Competence
in implementing special purpose protocol daemons (These daemons can simulate a
large number of protocol nodes and extremely large virtual networks. Alumnus has
successfully developed protocol daemons for multi platform and single threaded
environments. The suite of protocols includes unicast and multicast Routing Protocols
for both IPv4 and IPv6.) | Our experience
ranges from
| Layer-2
: | Bridging STP (802.1D), RSTP (802.1w), MSTP(802.1s)
VLAN (802.1Q) Port-based authentication (802.1x) PPPoE, L2TP MPLS
: MPLS, LDP, CR-LDP, RSVP-TE | | Layer-3
: | IPv4, ARP, ICMP IPv4 Unicast Routing:
RIP, OSPFv2, BGP4, IS-IS IPv4 Multicast Routing: IGMP, DVMRP, PIM-SM, PIM-DM
IPv6, NDP (RFC 2461), Stateless Address Auto configuration (RFC 2462), ICMPv6
(RFC 2463), Path MTU Discovery (RFC 1981), IPv6-over-IPv4 (RFC 2529, RFC 2473,
RFC 3068), IPv6 Jumbograms (RFC 2675), IPv6 Unicast Routing: RIPng, OSPFv3,
MP-BGP4, IS-IS IPv6 Multicast: MLD ATM UNI, PNNI, LANE |
| Layer-4
: | TCP and its extensions |
| Application
Layer: | HTTP | |
Security: | IPSec (IKE,
ESP, AH) | | Streaming
Protocols: | RTP, RTSP, RTCP |
| VoIP
: | SIP | | Mobile:
| MM1, MM4 | Network
Protocol Performance Tools: Alumnus has implemented special purpose
protocol daemons. These high performance daemons can simulate:
 |
Dense cloud of realtime intermediate as well as end systems; via unicast/multicast
routing protocol daemons. Includes RIP, RIPng, OSPFv2, OSPFv3, MP-BGP4, IS-IS,
IGMP, PIM-SM and PIM-DM |  | Further
magnifies the above in orders of magnitude by simulating thousands of realtime
virtual networks; using many kinds of VPN protocol daemons. Includes MPLS, RSVP,
LDP, CR-LDP, VPN-BGP4, L2TP |  | Further
magnifies the above in orders of magnitude by simulating thousands of realtime
user-end-points; with application (layer-7) protocol daemons. Includes FTP, HTTP,
HTTPS | Performance Monitoring Tools:
Alumnus has successfully implemented load generation and performance monitoring
tools in streaming protocols arena. In the form of distributed network of load
generators and sniffers; controlled from a central management unit. It provides
a range of mechanisms to the user for defining the load generation patterns; as
well types of statistics to be collected. The output is available in graphical
as well as report format. |
