Simple Drag and Drop Testing
|
 |
A variety of test packages ship with LanMark XT, allowing simple drag and drop testing. The ability to combine 2 or more packages by simply dragging a second package into the test window allows you to setup and run extremely complex testing scenarios in a matter of seconds.
For example, if you wanted to test the ability of a wireless 802.11a network to carry MPEG4 video, Outlook clients, and Host an FTP server you would just drag these three packages into the test group and press Start. Upon completion of the test, a report will be generated summarizing the performance under the tested conditions. This report can be very basic, or can include every package iteration detail, including Throughput, PER (Packet Error Rate), Average Inter-Frame Time, Package Name, Absolute time, Errors, Warnings, Test Node IP Address, etc. |

Multi-Node LAN / WAN Testing
|
 |

Test Nodes make network centric testing a breeze with LanMarkXT. Every PC that has LanMarkXT Installed on will enumerate in a list on the Test Console. Any node can be easily selected to participate in a test by simply dragging-and-dropping them into the Test Group. Once in the Test Group, they will automatically participate in the tests, and report their data back to the requesting Console. This makes multi-node LAN / WAN testing very efficient.

Quick N Easy; You wont waste any time reading complicated documentation, or flipping through quick start guides, you will be running your first test minutes after installing a few Nodes.

Create Custom Test Packages On The Fly

Create your own test Packages. LanMarkXT comes with a Package Wizard that will allow you to create your own test Packages in seconds. These packages can contain up to 100 different UDP tests and 100 different TCP tests at the same time. This gives you the ability to quickly test different packet sizes and IFS (Inter Frame Spaces) from a single test Package.

LanMark XT in the Lab
|
Stop wasting your valuable time timing file copies and looking at PER on a hardware dependant sniffer. LanMark XT will save you hundreds of hours a month, by automating your network monitoring, and running thousands of tests while you are completing other tasks. LanMark XT is a must for test engineers and systems professionals that are looking to save time and money through network automation.
Efficient User Interface, common features are always one click away
The User Interface of LanMark XT is enhanced by the use of a Multiple Document Interface (MDI). The MDI allows you to work in one window, and organize your testing without looking through multiple windows.

Graphing
LanMark XT includes dynamic graphing capabilities that will quickly expose network performance trends. You will be able to see PER bursts, network anomalies, and quickly evaluate even the largest number of data points with a single glance.

Single Console Operation, makes multi client testing a breeze
Every instance of LanMark XT running on you network has the ability to operate as a test console. You can use any Node as the test Console, by double clicking on the LanMarkXT tool tray icon. This gives you maximum flexibility in dynamic test environments. Your test Packages will be automatically distributed to any test Nodes that require them, and all in real time. This will give you the ability to run the Console from virtually any Node without manually copying your Test Packages to that Node.

Stay Current with Auto Update
LanMark XT is quipped with a mechanism that will ensure your version is current, and it will do this automatically. Every X number of days LanMark XT will check for updates via the Internet. If there is an update available, it will be downloaded and installed, making LanMarkXT updates as easy 1-2-3.

Integrated Help and Support
L1S Help is a fully featured HELP engine that runs on HTTP, and is constantly updated via the Internet using AutoUpdate. You can Search, Index, or Browse through the help tree, quickly finding the solution to your problem. If a solution is not found locally, you will be linked to our extensive online help database.
Strength Through Experience
LanMark XT is built on the solid core technology and experience gained through the ongoing development of LanMark Pro. LanMark Pro is used by over 1000 companies to develop new network topologies, test interoperability between homogeneous networks, and monitor network performance. LanMark XT takes us to the next level of testing though innovative new features, test packages that simulate real work application traffic, and greater scalability. LanMark XT will solve all of your Network Test and Monitoring needs.

LanMark XT is a complete solution for testing Network Hardware, Applications, Drivers, Transmitters, Receivers, Antennas, Antenna Arrays, Wireless Protocols, Interoperability, and more.
A must have for ANY Networking Facility or Testing Lab.
Who should buy LanMark XT?
Anyone, who needs to know the aggregate throughput from Point A to Point B, across a network. Or anyone who needs to know PER (Packet Error Rate) between any two PCs on their network. This data can be collected through actual data transfer from the applications you use. An example of this might be if you stream VoIP Unicast across your network and are having delay jitter issues at some point in the communication,
LanMark XT will send VoIP packets from every node in the network to every other node in the network and report back the performance, PER, and average Inter Frame Spacing between the packets. This data will show the quality of the VoIP characteristics of your network.
