10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet Network Interface Card (NIC) The Ixia Backplane is connected to the PC Motherboard, through an Ixia custom PCI interface card, and to the card slots where the Ixia load modules are installed. Chassis Synchronization Measurement of unidirectional latency and jitter in the transmission of data from a transmit port to a receive port requires that the relationship between time signatures at each of the ports is known.
An alternative means is required to satisfy these requirements. Ixia has facilities that allow for the synchronization of independent Ixia chassis located anywhere in the world by replacing the existing inter-chassis sync cables with a widely available frequency and time standard supplied from an external source.
Figure 2-4. Virtual Chaining To generate traffic for system latency testing, the Ixia 100 or Ixia 250 chassis can be used alone or in conjunction with another Ixia chassis, or the Ixia AFD1 (GPS receiver) can be used with any other Ixia chassis. The timing features available...

In SRP mode, the usual POS header (PPP, and so forth) is replaced by the SRP header. SRP networks use two counter-rotating rings. One Ixia port may be used to participate in one of the rings; two may be used to simultaneously participate in both rings.
Theory of Operation: General Port Hardware In SRP-mode, SRP packets can be captured and analyzed. The IxExplorer capture view displays packet analysis which understands SRP packets. The Ixia hardware also collects specific SRP related statistics and performs filtering based on SRP header contents.

‘up’ and therefore be ready for general traffic to flow. Each Ixia POS port implements a subset of the LCP, LQM, and NCP protocols. Each of the protocols is of the same basic format. For any connection, separate negotiations are performed for each direction.
Configure-Request. The Ixia port may be configured to immediately start negotiating after the physical link comes up, or passively wait for the peer to start the negotiation. Ixia ports both sends and responds to PPP keepalive messages called echo requests.
Page 95
(if it acknowledges the request, then the user value is used, or if the peer sends a Configure-Nak with another value the Ixia port uses that value as long as it is valid). This approach is used to maximize the probability of successful negotiation.
You must specify the local IP address of the unit and the peer must provide its own IP address. The Ixia port accepts any IP address the peer wishes to use as long as it is a valid address (for example, not all 0's).
Page 97
The Ixia PPP implementation of IPv6CP is such that the negotiation mode of the local endpoint may be configured in one of three modes: •...
‘FF FE’ are inserted between the company ID and the vendor-supplied ID, and the universal/local bit is set to ‘1’ to indicate global scope. An example of an Interface Identifier based on a MAC address is shown in Figure 2-28 on page 2- 2-38 Ixia Hardware and Reference Manual, Release 6.20...
The six most significant bits of the DiffServ field are called the Differential Services Code Point (DSCP). The DiffServ fields in the packet are organized as shown in Figure 2-29 on page 2-40.

OC48, POS, and 10GE load modules and as BERT-only load modules. As opposed to all other types of testing performed by Ixia hardware and software, BERT tests operate at the physical layer, also referred to as OSI Layer 1. POS frames are constructed using specific pseudo-random patterns, with or without inserted errors.
Errors in received BERT traffic are visible through the measured statistics, which are based on readings at one-second intervals. The statistics related to BERT are described in the Available Statistics appendix associated with the Ixia Hardware Guide and some other manuals.
Theory of Operation: General Port Transmit Capabilities Port Transmit The Ixia module ports format data to be transmitted in a hierarchy of structures: Capabilities • Streams and Flows—A set of related packet bursts • Bursts and the Inter-Burst Gap (IBG)—A repetition of packets •...
Packet Flows A second sequential data transmission model is supported by software for any Ixia port which supports Packet Flows. An individual packet flow can consist of from 1 to 15,872 packets. For packet flows consisting of only one unique packet each, a maximum of 15,872 individual flows can be transmitted.
Each non-continuous stream is related to the next stream by one of four modes: • Stop after this stream Data transmission stops after the completion of the current stream. (For example, after transmission of a stream consisting of 10 bursts of 100 packets each.) Ixia Hardware and Reference Manual, Release 6.20 2-49...
For POS modules, bursts of packets are separated by Burst Gaps. ATM modules do not insert IBGs. The size and resolution of these gaps depends on the type of Ixia load module in use. The placement of Inter-Burst Gaps is shown in Figure 2-38 on page 2-51.
Continuous Packet mode is used. Frames are separated by programmable Inter-Packet Gaps (IPGs), sometimes referred to as Inter-Frame Gaps (IFGs). The size and resolution of the Inter-Packet Gaps depends on the particular Ixia module in use. For non-Ethernet modules, the ISG is implemented by use of empty frames and the resolution of the IPG is limited to a multiple of such frames.
VLAN. VLAN IDs 0 and FFF are reserved. VID = 0 indicates the null VLAN ID, which means that the tag header contains only user priority information. An example of Layer 2 broadcast domain without VLANs is shown in Figure 2- on page 2-53. 2-52 Ixia Hardware and Reference Manual, Release 6.20...

The time interval between the first data bit out of the Ixia transmit port and the first data bit received by the Ixia receive port is measured. The first data bit received on Ethernet links (10/100 and Gigabit modules) is the start of the MAC DA field.
For a flow with no packet reordering, the ‘reversal errors’ matches the number of duplicates received. For a flow with packet reordering, the ‘reversal errors’ gives a count that may be higher than the number of duplicates received. Ixia Hardware and Reference Manual, Release 6.20 2-73...
Checking are forced to a single, uniform offset location in each frame of the stream. Many of the Ixia software application (that is, IxVPN, IxChariot, and so forth) can generate streams that place a signature at random places within the frames of a single stream.
Port Transmit/Receive Capabilities Round Trip TCP Flows For most 10/100 load modules, a special capability exists in the Ixia hardware to enable the measurement of round trip times for IP packets sent through a switch or other network device. The normal setup for this measurement is shown in Figure 2-57 on page 2-75.

IxRouter Window The IxRouter window provides the means by which routing protocols are emulated by the Ixia hardware and software. This window includes the interface by which multiple IPv4 and IPv6 interfaces are associated with each port. A growing number of protocols are supported in this window, including ARP, BGP, OSPF, ISIS, RSVP-TE, LDP, RIP, RIPng, and IGMP.

The Tcl scripts are executed on a Unix client. The following sections describe the components used in each of these scenarios. Operation on the When the Tcl client software is installed on the Ixia chassis itself three distinct Ixia Chassis software components are used, as shown in Figure 2-59 on page 2-85.
Software Modules Used on a Windows Client Module Usage Tcl scripts Ixia supplied and user developed tests run on the Windows client using the Tcl software. The Tcl extensions that program the Ixia hardware use the TclHAL layer. TclHAL A layer of software, supplied as a DLL (Dynamic Linked Library), that is responsible for interpreting the Tcl commands into C++ functions to be sent to the IxServer over the local network.
Its commands are received from clients over the LAN. Multiple Client A single Ixia chassis may be used by multiple clients simultaneously. Clients Environment may run from the Ixia chassis, Windows clients, and Unix clients simultaneously, as shown in Figure 2-62 on page 2-88.
Linux or Solaris, Tclsh runs on any version of Tcl greater than or equal to 8.2. The use of the Wish shell with Ixia software has been tested for Tcl 8.3 under Windows, Linux, and Solaris. It has not been tested, but should run with any Tcl version greater than or equal to 8.2.
Protocols Protocol Server Most ports in an Ixia chassis operate a Protocol Server. The Protocol Server includes a complete TCP/IP stack, allowing different forms of high-level DUT testing. The Protocol Server can be configured to test a set of provided Level 2 and Level 3 protocols, which include MAC and IP addressing and IP routing.
MAC address of that particular DUT. The IP table within the ARP window specifies a per-port correspondence between IP addresses, MAC addresses (for Ethernet ports only), and the Default Ixia Hardware and Reference Manual, Release 6.20...
All ARP requests (for Ethernet) are sent to the Default Gateway address. In most cases, the Default Gateway Address is the address of the DUT. When a gateway separates the Ixia port from the DUT, use the IP address of that gateway as the Default.
(N^2). If a DR and BDR are used, the number of required adjacencies drops to 2 times the number of routers (2N). Currently, the Ixia ports are unable to simulate a DR or BDR. Once the routers have initialized their adjacency databases, they synchronize their databases.

30 minutes to ensure that they all hold identical LSDBs. This section describes the programming of the Ixia hardware related to OSPF testing, as well as the theory of operation and protocol message formats. The Ixia hardware simulates multiple OSPF routers on multiple networks. For example, in Figure 3-1 on page 3-5 there are three networks and three routers.
Page 154
Within this framework, Link State Advertisements (LSAs) may be issued from the perspective of any interface on any router. Any OSPF messages from the DUT Routers may be captured and analyzed in the normal manner. Ixia Hardware and Reference Manual, Release 6.20...
Note: In OSPFv2, IPv4 addresses were used in many contexts besides IP source and destination addresses. For example, they were assigned as name identifiers for routers (RIDs). This naming convention for RIDs has been retained in OSPFv3. Ixia Hardware and Reference Manual, Release 6.20...

‘tagged’ with multiple numbers, called communities. This is also referred to sometimes as route coloring. BGP Router Test The Ixia Protocol server implements an environment in which the Ixia hardware Configuration simulates multiple routers which speak IBGP and/or EBGP with one or more DUT routers.
Page 158
The Ixia hardware is used to simulate three of the routers in two different ASs communicating with two routers being tested. A single router emulated by the Ixia hardware is specified by a single IP address, and a number of emulated routers may be specified by a range of IP addresses.
Page 159
A BGP4 network condition called ‘flapping’ can be emulated by the protocol server on an Ixia port. In the Link flapping emulation, a peer BGP router appears to be going offline and online repeatedly, which is accomplished on the Ixia port by alternate disconnects and reconnects of the TCP/IP stack.

Two distinct versions of RIP exist: version 1 and version 2. Both IPv4 and IPv6 are supported. As implemented by the Protocol Server, each Ixia port is capable of simulating one or more routers at distinct addresses. Routing tables for the simulated routers are configured by you and sent out at regular intervals, with a configurable randomizing factor.

Hello PDU processing. The Ixia Protocol Server does not support the role of DR, so to ensure that it is not elected by its ISIS peers each Ixia-simulated ISIS router has a default priority of ‘0,’ indicating its unwillingness to be the Designated IS.
RSVP-TE RSVP-TE The Ixia protocol server implements a part of the Resource Reservation Protocol (RSVP) used for Traffic Engineering (TE). This subset of the RSVP protocol, referred to as RSVP-TE, is used in the process of constructing a path through a sequence of MPLS-enabled label switched routers (LSRs), while reserving necessary bandwidth resources.
Page 169
Three scenarios are currently supported to test MPLS/RSVP-TE on a DUT using Ixia equipment: The DUT acts as the Ingress LSR, and the Egress LSR is simulated by an Ixia port. The DUT acts as the Egress LSR, and the Ingress LSR is simulated by an Ixia port.

Front Panel Loopback Connector In order to verify that the Ixia XAUI Load Module is operational, a loopback connector may be used to test external loopback on the front panel. You can remove the connector by pulling back on the blue handle, releasing the connection to the Fujitsu MicroGiGa connector.
(CAB10GE500S1) that allows a straight connection as shown in Figure A-5. This cable can also be used for loopback testing on an Ixia chassis equipped with two or more XAUI ports. Longer cable assemblies can be made on request, but we do not recommend that the cable length exceed 2 meters, because losses and skew may become unacceptable.

70-pin connector. Ixia’s XAUI Load Module, however, uses a Fujitsu MicroGiGa connector to both transmit and receive four XAUI lanes through eight twisted pairs through a 20” cable. Ixia offers an adapter (part number FXN10GE500) that routes the XAUI lanes from the Fujitsu connector to the pins on the XENPAK connector.
Tyco HM-Zd connector. Tyco had also built an SMA adapter to connect to the backplane, but it is too time-consuming and difficult to connect through SMAs. Ixia has built an HM-Zd adapter (P/N FTY10GE500), which allows direct connection to the backplane through the Fujitsu connector, saving significant setup time.
