UNI signaling tests

The "Signaling Emulation" function allows you to test the signaling characteristics of UNIs.
Signaling emulation provides a rapid "go/no go" assessment of the following:
• Is it possible to set up a connection?
• What address format is supported?
• Which contract parameters can be negotiated?
• Which service categories can be used?
• Does the signaling process operate without problems?

Analysis of ATM signals

The ATM Channel Explorer is used to analyze ATM signals. This tool, for example can perform
rapid diagnostics by finding the active ATM channels and displaying their bandwidth and AAL
distributions. A further application is the detection of defects and anomalies in the ATM signal.
