Ixia launches solution to analyse network faults and outages

Ixia, a provider of network testing, visibility, and security solutions, has announced TrafficREWIND, which captures traffic patterns from a production network and recreates them in a sandbox environment. Based on patent-pending technology, TrafficREWIND enables enterprises, service providers, and network equipment manufacturers to speed fault isolation and outage resolution with real world testing.

TrafficREWIND leverages several of the company’s other solutions, including the Vision ONE network visibility solution to capture production network traffic profiles, the BreakingPoint testing platform to replay the traffic in a controlled environment such as a predeployment lab or a staged network, as well as Ixia’s Application and Threat Intelligence (ATI) technology.

“Ixia continues to lead the industry in the development of test and visibility technologies that solve complex network challenges,” said Sunil Kalidindi, VP of product management at Ixia. “We’ve used that expertise to design TrafficREWIND and make it easy for customers to recreate their unique network traffic to quickly identify problems and fix them before there is any significant loss of productivity or potential revenue.”

TrafficREWIND allows customers to transform from a reactive to a proactive approach as they manage, scale, and operate their networks, by:

· Translating production network insight into traffic stimuli for sandbox test environments;

· Anonymising payloads to ensure data security versus storing actual traffic payloads such as packet captures; and

· Modelling network behaviour by changing application types, as well as the bandwidth distribution and application characteristics of the generated test traffic over time.
