  • Author: Matthew Demyttenaere
EXFO’s latest Ethernet tool – the EXpert Network Protocol Analyzer (NPA) software – was designed specifically for this purpose. Installed on the FTB-400 Universal Test System mainframe, it allows users to carry out higher-layer protocol tests and perform detailed analyses of the frames, as it gives the user the capability to see all the way down to the bytes of the frame. This can be done either out of service, when the traffic is terminated, or using a mirrored port to monitor live traffic. This application note covers the main applications for this software tool and how it can help network service providers in each of those situations.
