IxChariot Reviews

We use this tool as a traffic generator tool. It is used to test the performance KPIs and throughput numbers. It is also used in long-run stability test cases where you want continuous bandwidth data traffic. For example, if you're going to run a 12-hour overnight period, you can configure it in the IxChariot window and create a pace. You can generate traffic between whom, what, and the endpoints. So if you put it in that window and run it for 12 hours, it'll run and give you results in graph format, histograms or even pie charts. You can determine the throughput units if you want Mbps or Gbps. You may have some initial difficulties configuring if you are not used to the tools, but it gets easier as you become more familiar.

The most valuable feature is multimedia testing. We can easily simulate voice traffic, video traffic, and networking control traffic in IxChariot. When you install IxChariot, it will simulate video traffic, and scripts are also available.

• Active testing of network infrastructure.
• Central server with an easy-to-use GUI.
• Automatic test endpoints registration to central server.
• Predefined scenarios for real word traffic, including lots of VoIP types.

Automatization of multiple test scenarios is now only possible from the API.
