Framework for Ethernet Network Functionality Testing
Computer networks and telecommunication systems use a wide range of applications. Therefore, the power and complexity of computer networks are increasing every day which enhances the possibilities of the end user, but also makes harder the work of those who have to design, maintain and make a network efficient, optimized and secure. Ethernet functionality testing as a generic term used for checking connectivity, throughput and capability to transfer packets over the network. Especially in the packet-switch environment, Ethernet testing has become an essential part for deploying a reliable network. A platform and vendor independent framework is required to verify and test the functionality of the Ethernet network and to verify the functionality and performance of the TCP/IP stack. “NetBurst” is developed for Ethernet functionality testing
Keywords: Communication, Networking, Performance, Load, Portability, Throughput, TCP, IP, Protocol, Ethernet, Testing.
