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 13.0 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.
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.
Supports Network Mobility (NEMO) specification in the PGW Nodal Test case for both GTP and PMIPv6 on the S5/S8 and S2A/B. interfaces.
Landslide 13.0 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.
Support for AMR Narrowband and AMR Wideband Voice Codecs. You may upload .WAV files and generate AMR codec audio streams for the Landslide emulated UEs to play during VoLTE calls
HTTP Digest Authentication for IMS authentication
VoLTE pre-conditioning, a VOLTE option that ensures the dedicated bearer has been established before the VOLTE call is completed and voice media is transmitted (see also SIP Preconditions).
