Aukua Network Impairment Emulator

Aukua Ethernet Network Impairment Emulators, also called WAN Emulators, are used by our customers to precisely recreate the delay, congestion, and packet or link impairments found in all real-world data and storage networks. Aukua Network Impairment Emulators are easy to use, provide a repeatable test methodology and directly help reduce risk and avoid business interruptions.

  • Validate voice, video, mobile, gaming or data application performance under real-world network delay and congestion scenarios.
  • Accurately predict end user experience before deploying a new cloud based service or migrating or relocating a datacenter.
  • Reduce mean-time-to-resolution (MTTR) by realistically reproducing production network issues in the lab.
  • Validate device and system functionality with a wide variety of repeatable negative testing scenarios.
  • Supports 10M to 25GbE rates including the first and only to support IEEE 802.3bz 2.5G/5GBASE-T and Automotive Ethernet
