MNTG: Multistream network traffic generator
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
LancsNet Multistream network traffic generator (MSNTG) is the highly customizable and configurable network traffic generator IP that supports all types of L2 and L3 traffics. The cores can be used for multistream generations for network devices such as routers and switch with a large number of physical interfaces. The core can generate random or user-defined packets and include the self-check module for automatic testing. A full solution offered by LancsNet includes the MNTG IP, the hardware chassis, and the software running on PC for config the test cases.
