LM1000LX, LM1000SX, LM1000GBIC, & LM1000T Load Modules - Multilayer Gigabit Ethernet The Ixia LM1000LX, LM1000SX, Multi-Users LM1000T and LM1000GBIC are Multiple concurrent users can own ports. This Multilayer Gigabit Ethernet Load allows hardware port resources to be shared. Modules for the IXIA 1600, IXIA 400, and IXIA 100 chassis. Each module TCP Traffic Generation incorporates two fully independent TCP protocol is embedded within hardware allowing ports that provide extremely powerful thousands of TCP sessions to be established on a and remarkably flexible traffic single port. Traffic can be generated on a per TCP generation, capture, and filtering socket level, allowing real-world flow testing under capabilities to fully test multilayer controlled conditions.
