IPv6 Validation
Validate the capability of your network infrastructure to support IPv6 prior to launch and ensure a smooth roll-out without service interruptions. Perform remote and efficient troubleshooting of IPv6, 6-to-4 or 4-to-6 problems.
Ethernet Activation
Easily validate both Ethernet data and control planes, and get standards-based reports as proof that your Ethernet connections are correctly turned up at delivery time. Netrounds offers great features for remote troubleshooting of business Ethernet services.
IPTV and Triple Play Testing and Monitoring
Visualize quality from the head-end all the way to your customers and monitor this over time. Easily pinpoint where in the network problems are occurring to reduce time and cost to solve critical issues.
L2/L3 Packet Mangling
Netrounds gives you the ability to analyze in-depth how your network affects various types of traffic on Ethernet (L2) and IP (L3). This is particularly useful to ensure correct marking and re-marking of QoS headers. This helps you verify whether a point-to-point connection has the characteristics you expect.
