Xgig Analyzer software supports the JXgig family of test/analysis systems. Xgig analyzer
software supports up to 64 ports (4 Xgig chassis with 4 blades, each blade with 4 ports) when
concatenating Xgig chassis. The maximum number of ports in a domain depends on what types of
Xgig, Xgig5000, or Xgig1000 systems you have.
Xgig Analyzer software supports the Xgig family of test/analysis devices. The Xgig, Xgig1000,
and Xgig5000 allow you to analyze networks with a variety of protocols, including Fibre Channel,
SAS/SATA, Gigabit Ethernet, PCIe/NVMe, and AHCI. The function of ports on blades in a
chassis is controlled through TraceControl software.
