Xena2544

Efficient RFC 2544 Ethernet Test Automation for High-Performance Networks

Xena2544 is a Windows-based test application designed to create, configure, and execute Ethernet performance tests in line with RFC 2544 standards. It enables precise validation of network performance across Layer 2 and Layer 3, supporting IPv4 and IPv6 environments.

The platform offers flexible configuration for traffic generation, protocol definition, and topology setup, allowing engineers to simulate real-world network conditions with both single-stream and multi-stream testing. It also supports Linux execution via the Mono framework and produces detailed test reports in PDF and XML formats.

When integrated with Xena OpenAutomation (XOA), Xena2544 can be fully automated using a Python-based API, making it suitable for both manual and automated testing workflows.
