FEATURED PRODUCTS
Traffic Management
The Traffic Manager (TM) is a highly scalable, modular, and configurable QoS engine. It is designed to be protocol agnostic for use with a wide range of frame/packet processing applications requiring support for Quality of Service (QoS) features. The TM is designed in compliance of the various standards. The current throughput of TM is up to 20 Gb/s full duplex and 30M packet/s with sustained performance for small packets.
Pseudo-Wire Emulation Edge to Edge (PWE3)
PW technology allows various services such as ATM, Fractional T1, Frame Relay, etc. to be emulated over a PSN. In general the emulation involves assembling native service data received from a native service interface into a PW PDU payload, attaching PW header information to the payload, transporting the PW PDU from one end of a network tunnel to the other, processing and stripping the PW header on tunnel egress, and finally replaying the native service data from the PDU on the far end native service interface.
VLAN Switch
Modelware’s Ethernet Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) Switch implements the IEEE 802.1Q data link layer (Layer 2) switching function. The switch implements Shared and Independent VLAN Learning (SVL and IVL) bridge with address ageing that automatically learns the address/port associations from received frames. The switch can be programmed to support virtual local area network (VLAN) operation on any input and output ports individually. The number of Ethernet ports supported by the switch, their speeds, and physical layer interfaces can be configured. The switch architecture is scalable and capable of supporting a total throughput between 1Gb/s to 20Gb/s.
Ethernet OAM
Ethernet OAM provides network operators with the ability to monitor point to point links using two primary mechanisms: an intrusive loopack function and various messaging mechanisms between two ends of a P2P link so that link status information is available at either end of the link. When coupled with higher layer functions, the link level OAM functionality described here can be used to effectively monitor the health of a network as well as perform fault isolation during network outages.
