Converged IP Testing for Governments and Agencies
A Complete Line of Test Solutions to Support IP-based Communications and Services
Government and government agencies must provide appropriately sized, reliable networks and applications to their user communities. Doing so requires proper vendor and carrier selection, capacity and QoS validation for new services, management of network upgrades and end-to-end monitoring and troubleshooting. Ixia offers testing solutions that aid organizations of all sizes in network operation.
Ixia's solutions enable infrastructure and service validate prior to deployment by simulating true scale and network behavior. Live network service verification and monitoring is essential for ensuring end-to-end performance. Ixia's intelligent test applications and automation tools facilitate quick network validation after upgrades and service modifications.
Ixia tests the broad range of networking services used by governments and their agencies and other associated organizations:
- Carrier SLA performance
- Multiplay traffic information servers, DPI-based forwarders and balancers
- Specialized information assurance products such as VPN gateways and firewalls
- Complete voice, video and data offerings

Ixia's products are all state-of-the-art, addressing emerging technologies, including:
|
Different types of tests are required to support a complete product life cycle – from the drawing board to the field:
- Interoperability testing – to ensure interoperability through protocol conformance
- Device and sub-system performance characterization – to properly provision the live network
- Security testing – to ensure that products are not vulnerable to failure under attack
- End-to-end system testing – to guarantee that traffic is delivered through the network, to the customer's satisfaction
- Post-deployment service verification – to test network components and customer equipment on a continuous basis, isolating problems before customer complain
- Test automation – to facilitate efficient testing and regression analysis
