Changes made in previous releases are listed in the following topics:
Command mode Test Activity allows you to control and dynamically alter the UE’s mobility procedure or next data transmission during test execution. The command mode test case, also allows you to have manual or automated control of the mobile subscriber's actions. You may specify the operation to be performed on a specific mobile subscriber, the type of events to execute (example, Attach, Detach, Handover, Add Bearers/contexts, Delete Bearer/Contexts, etc.), and the timing of the event during test execution.
Landslide 12.0 supports Command mode in DRA Node, HSS Node, HA Nodal, GGSN Nodal, MME Nodal, MME Node, OCS Node, PCRF Node, SGW Nodal, PGW Nodal, UMTS Nodal, and WOGW Nodal test cases.
The eMBMS Nodal and eMBMS Node test cases provides verifying the performance and scale of the Sm control interface between the MME and the MBMS-GW and the M1 data path between the enodeBs and the MBMS-GW. Landslide allows testing and emulates the MBMS-GW and BM-SC.
By editing the number of transactions/sec
By editing the quantity of data that is sent in a transaction.
You may edit Traffic Rate/Mix and Throughput at the table/pie chart level and are not required to open each DMF to make the change.
Landslide 12.0 Tcl-based API allows total control of the Landslide system via the Tcl interface. All the capabilities available via Landslides GUI are available via Landslide’s Tcl API.
In addition, you may also save the existing test sessions, DMFs, and/or MEs as Tcl file. See also Save As Tcl.
