You can expand your testing capability by purchasing addi-
tional software options for the Ethernet SIM. The options
available for purchase are as follows:
Table 6 Ethernet software options
Option Description Catalog Number
Optical Ethernet Using this option, you can test 1G and
100M optical Ethernet network ele-
ments and services.
HST3000-OPTETH
Multiple Streams Using this option, you can transmit up
to 8 streams of traffic to verify how the
network switching and routing equip-
ment prioritizes traffic based on the
priority levels (L2 and L3) assigned to
each stream.
HST3000-MSTR
Layer 2 Transpar-
ency
Using this option, you can transmit
and analyze layer 2 traffic with head-
ers (such as CDP, VTP, STP, and
R/STP) to verify that a circuit can sup-
port a variety of control protocols irre-
spective of the transport method.
HST3000 –
L2TRANS
MAC-in-MAC Using this option, you can transmit
and analyze MAC-in-MAC Ethernet
traffic over a PBB (Provider Backbone
Bridged) network to verify end-to-end
connectivity, and analyze link perfor-
mance.
HST3000 – MIM
OAM Using this option, you can test Ether-
net First Mile OAM communications.
HST3000 – OAM
TCP/UDP Using this option, you can transmit
and analyze IPv4 layer 4 traffic with
TCP or UDP headers in terminate
mode. The IPv6 Traffic option is also
required for layer 4 IPv6 testing.
