How to Configure Incremental Raw Traffic For IxNetwork Traffic
In case you need to send IP traffic from a bunch of source addresses to other bunch of destination address you have to options.
Option 1: configure IP Interfaces and use them to create IPv4 Traffic Item
This is useful when you need to add different other protocol on those IP addresses: let’s say that when you need to send traffic from 1.1.0.1 and in the same time 1.1.0.1 should be a simulated OSPF Router
This is useful if your purpose is just to send traffic. Take in consideration that you should know the value of the 1st Hop MAC Address ( if the traffic will pass through a router).
Bellow I am going to explain how to create traffic using the 2nd option
Setup:
Create 1 traffic item with 10 flows tracked after the Source IP as bellow:
Flow 1 VLAN 101 Source IP=1.1.0.1 Destination IP=2.1.0.1
Flow2 VLAN 102 Source IP=1.2.0.1 Destination IP=2.2.0.1
………
Flow10 VLAN 110 Source IP=1.10.0.1 Destination IP=2.10.0.1
Configuration Steps:
On Main Window go to Traffic Item and select to add a L2-3 Traffic item
The Advance Traffic Wizard will open
On Endpoint Page chose type of traffic Raw and send from port 1 to 2
On Packet /QoS page perform the following settings:
Set the MAC destination address as : 00:00:02:00:00:1
Clickon the small arrow next to MAC value and chose to change the value type Incremental count 10
Perform similar setting on the MAC Source address
Mac Source=00:00:01:00:00:01 incremental count 10
Click on the Payload and then on Add Protocol button. On the popup window select to add VLAN
Make the VLAN incremental
Similarly Add IPv4 protocol to payload and make the Source/ Destination IP address incremental
On the Flow Goup Setup page check that you want to create flows based on IPv4 Source Address
On Frame setup change the Frame size to 1000B
On the Rate Setup page change the rate to 1000pkts/seconds
On Flow tracking page chose to track flows based on Ipv4 source address as we set on the flows
Now you will see the newly created Traffic Item on the Traffic Item Window
In order for traffic to work you will need to apply it to the ports using the following button
As soon as traffic is applied you will see the green arrow next to it and you can start it.
Note:
If you want you can start just one flow at a time by going on L2-3 flow groups window
After traffic is started you can see the traffic item statistics in the Main Statistics window
If yo would like to see statistics per flow chose to Drill down the statistics per IPv4 Source Address
