BNG Blaster
|
|
|
|
|
===========
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The **BNG Blaster** is an open-source network tester
|
|
|
|
|
for access and routing protocols. It can emulate massive
|
|
|
|
|
PPPoE and IPoE (DHCP) subscribers including IPTV, and L2TP (LNS).
|
|
|
|
|
There are various routing protocols supported like ISIS and BGP.
|
|
|
|
|
So you can use it for end-to-end BNG and non-BNG router testing.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can use the included traffic generator for forwarding verification,
|
|
|
|
|
QoS testing or to measure convergence times. The traffic generator supports
|
|
|
|
|
millions of separate tracked flows. This allows you to verify every single
|

|
|
|
forwarding state of a full-feed internet routing table. You can also send
|
2022-03-30 23:47:00 +02:00
|
|
|
traffic to every single QoS queue of your service edge router.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The BNG Blaster is used by leading network operators, network hard- and software vendors.
