The Protocol Engine Platform

All Valid8.com telecom test applications are built upon The Protocol Engine (PE) Platform. Our unique powerful platform offers a wide variety of emulation and load testing capabilities in both scale and scope.

The platform comes in three form-factors. Each format provides a different load and performance which allows our platform to effectively fulfill any test requirements from as little as one call to many thousands of calls distributed across multiple systems. The same platform is used in all the form-factors, providing an easy and effective upgrade path throughout the testing life-cycle.

Our state of the art platform has many features to streamline telecommuncation network testing.

  • Features

    Simple, Easy to Use Interface

    The touch compatible web UI is designed for ease of use. The Dashboard displays system status in at-a-glance format.

    Extensive Testing Types Coverage

    Enables Feature, Load and Negative Testing for signaling and media flows. PE lets you run different types of test at the same time.

    Realistic Call Profiles

    Uses MAC/IP spoofing to realistically emulate thousands of end-points down to the MAC layer. Allows different call profiles or state-machines to be run in parallel. Uses Normal Gaussian distribution for key call parameters

     
     

    Broad Range of Performance Metrics

    Tracks and displays message counters, response time measurements and ratios, flagging errors clearly.

    Extensive Scripting and Configuration

    Rapid scenario development enables creation of complex, multi-protocol, multi-interface test scenarios. Accurate simulations of stateful network protocols and devices Powerful configuration rules that does not require each instance to be configured separately

    Call Detail Records (CDR) Storage

    CDRs stored in a high-performance database. Report generation based on live and recorded CDR data

     
     

    Highly Customizable

    Providing rapid turn-around. Easy to upgrade customizations via drag-and-drop UI

    Extensive API for Effective System Integration

    The HTTP REST API offers very fine control for integration into automation processes. Allows control to the complete DUT environment via custom interfaces. Command injection to inject events into running scenarios for dynamic changes. Live report generation

    Supports Many Telecom Network Protocols

    This includes SIP, H.323, Skinny, Megaco/H.248, MGCP, RTP, RTCP, SIGTRAN xUA, SCTP, SS7, Diameter, Radius, DNS, DHCP, HTTP.
