Subject: Network load test equipment
I'm looking for equipment that can be used to load test network equipment
such as switches, routers, firewall, and load balancers with pre-defined
traffic patterns at differing rates. Ideally, this is only something I
think I'll need 2-3x a year, so purchasing is not necessarily justifiable.
I'd prefer to rent. What products have you used? Where did you get them
from?
I need to be able to run pre-defined traffic patterns at various rates, in
excess of 10Gbps in most cases.
Thanks!
Greg
