HARDWARE
SOFTWARE
Investigator�™ FCoE Solutions �– 1Gbps to 10Gbps
Powerful. Efficient. Flexible.
Investigator�™ FCoE ProtocolAnalyzers provide the mostpowerful and granular triggersand filters ever developed.Investigator�’s efficient pre filtermemory management permitsdata capture over lengthy periodsof time, while intuitive applicationsoftware formats and displaysdata in easily understood graphsand tables.
Interface, Analysis and Test Support Investigator�™ FCoE ProtocolAnalyzers support networkinterfaces capable of full line rate,multi channel and multiple protocoltesting. Investigator�™ hardwaresupports analysis, traffic generationand statistics for optical interfaceconnections.
Compatible Configuration
All Investigator�™ features are fullyunified under one architecture,making it easy to expand to meetfuture needs, whatever they may be.Multi channel configurations supportup to 16 independent ports of testing,with mixed protocol configurationsalso supported. Protocol analyzersfeature time correlated views withcross card triggering for channelsynchronization, with each port ableto sustain full line rate data transfersto all supported protocols anddevices.

Data Capture
Capture 100% of data at full linerate and in raw 10 bit format, andstop with �“buffer full�” or �“bufferwrap�” options. Captured tracescanbe viewed on any Windows PCusing a standalone viewer. Thehardware compression algorithmmakes efficient use of tracememory resources. Networktopology can be displayed throughanalysis of captured traces.

Absolute Analysis Investigator�™ Ethernetand FCoE Traffic Generators allow you togenerate 10Gbps Ethernet or FCoE trafficinto a Device Under Test (DUT) withcomplete control over the timing andcontent of the data. Valid and invalidtraffic streams can be defined to testdevice error recovery. The trafficgenerator�’s ability to maintain full linerate traffic, even across multiple links,allows device performance to bemeasured and operation under stressto be characterized.

The 10Gbps Ethernet and FCoEProtocol Editors from AbsoluteAnalysis are a point to point networkallowing two devices to communicatetogether using a user defined protocol.The Absolute Analysis Investigator�™Protocol Database Editor allowsthe Protocol Analyzer�’s standarddatabase to be expanded tosupport protocols that you define.
Additional Investigator�™ FCoE Solutions
Once part of the database, theprotocol that you�’ve defined canbe used as a filter or can triggerscenarios, in addition to beingfully decoded in the trace viewer.Other features, such as post capturefiltering, are fully available as if theprotocol was part of the standardInvestigator�™ Protocol Analyzerdatabase.

The Ethernet and FCoE physical layershave multiple physical layer options.The Investigator�™ platform supportsSmall Form Factor Pluggable+ modules(SFP+) to allow the user to easilyswitch between various optical andcopper physical layers. Passive opticaltaps are also available where thecircumstances dictate that theinsertion of the test tool cannotdisrupt the network traffic. (ProtocolAnalysis only.)
Additional Investigator�™ FCoE Solutions
Absolute Analysis Investigator�™10Gbps Ethernet and FCoE Analyzersare available in several platformsranging from highly portable tohigh port count rack mounts.
The Ethernet and FCoE API Librariesare a �‘C�” API that provide you withprogrammatic control over all of theInvestigator�™ tools. Using the APILibrary, you can write customapplications that function over theplatform or create code for testautomation.
