What can IxLoad test?
IPTV Services represents a tremendous revenue opportunity for service and content providers. That's why such providers must be able to verify the complex network requirements that will ensure both a subscriber's Quality of Experience(QoE) and the viability of the IPTV services themselves. Fortunately, IxLoad was designed specifically to meet the sophisticated testing requirements of IPTV infrastructure.
- Video Servers - IxLoad can stress test the video server, and measure its ability to scale to use demands by emulating a large number VoD subscribers
- Channel Change Performance - IxLoad tests IGMP join/leave performance by simulating IP Set-top Boxes and various user behavior and content
- Edge and Access Network - IxLoad can test edge network devices for protocols like PPP and DHCP options, as well as stacked VLANs, by emulating a large number of subscribers
- Transport Network - IxLoad tests the performance of the transport network by emulating video, video, and data traffic, and then providing quality metrics to accurately measure transport capability
- Stress test IPTV middleware - IxLoad tests the authentication features and functionality of IPTV middleware
- Infrastructure testing - IxLoad tests key services of the infrastructure, such as DHCP and AAA services
- Customer Quality of Experience (QoE) - IxLoad tests the subscriber's perception of service quality for IPTV services
