Landslide WiMAX Forum testing provides comprehensive, end-to-end emulation of millions of mobile WiMAX subscriber stations, all simultaneously accessing the wireless network. By emulating all of the key wireless core packet data network elements and base stations, Landslide combines control plane and data plane simulation to provide real-world emulation of millions of mobile nodes in various stages of activation, deactivation, and hand off between cells. Emulation takes place while transmitting and receiving real-world application data.
The WiMAX Forum Test Application provides both nodal and end-to-end test capability, including the following:
ASN Nodal Testing (tests/isolates ASN Gateway)
CSN Nodal Testing (tests/isolates the CSN)
End-to-End Testing (tests ASN Gateway and CSN together)
VLAN Support
Each test server supports 100,000 subscriber stations. Up to 32 test servers can be supported in a single test bed.
