CT800 LANforge-ICE 45 Mbps WAN Emulator

Saturday, August 15th, 2009

The CT800 is an economical choice for a portable netbook based network emulator supporting speeds up to 45 Mbps (bi-directional). The CT800 is an economy model netbook (specific brand depends on what is easily available at our suppliers). The netbook will contain one built-in wired ethernet interface, and a second wired interface will be a Expresscard NIC. All management will usually be done locally on the netbook since there may not be a third interface for management. However, a USB network adapter (not included) can provide management access if necessary.

Quick Start Guide

  1. Connect Client to one WAN emulation port and Server to the other. The two interfaces will be bridged and this bridge will inject the network emulation.
  2. Connect netbook power plug to a standard US or European AC power source.
  3. The CT800 should now boot.
  4. Start the LANforge-GUI, and click ‘Connect’ to the default ‘localhost:4002′.
  5. Select the WanLinks tab in the GUI. One of the pre-configured tests should already be running. You may double-click the row in the top section to modify the configuration. You can also view a real-time report of the test with the ‘Display’ button. Any modifications take place immediately after you click ‘Submit’.

CT919 LANforge ICE 2 Mbps WAN Emulator

Saturday, August 15th, 2009

The CT919 is an excellent choice for a portable network emulator supporting speeds up to 2 Mbps (bi-directional). The CT919 has no moving parts and will fit into a small travel bag or briefcase for easy portability. It is also completely silent, so you can include it in your customer demos and presentations. No additional hardware or software is required, but it is suggested that you manage the system using the LANforge GUI on a separate machine. The CT919 can also be managed over a DB-9 serial console in text mode.

Example Network Diagram

Quick Start Guide

  1. Connect Management ethernet port to Management network or management PC. If connecting directly to a PC, an ethernet cross-over cable should be used.
  2. Connect Client to eth0 and Server to eth1. The eth0 <-> eth1 interfaces will be bridged and this bridge will inject the network emulation.
  3. Connect power brick to standard US or European AC power source.
  4. Install the LANforge GUI on a separate management PC or Laptop. Windows and Linux GUIs are supported: Select the correct one from the CDROM or Candela Technologies Download page and install it.
  5. The CT919 should now boot. If DHCP is enabled on the Management network, the CT919 will automatically acquire an IP address. If DHCP is not available, the IP address will be set to 192.168.1.101 by the LANforge scripts.
  6. Start the LANforge GUI on the management PC and click the ‘Discover’ button. It should find the CT919 appliance and add the IP address to the drop-down box in the Connect widget. Press ‘Connect’ and you will be connected to the CT919.
  7. Select the WanLinks tab in the GUI. One of the pre-configured tests should already be running. You may double-click the row in the top section to modify the configuration. You can also view a real-time report of the test with the ‘Display’ button. Any modifications take place immediately after you click ‘Submit’.
