Napatech Software Suite: Development Tools

The Napatech tools are software command line tools that are provided free of charge and can be incorporated into Napatech OEM customers’ own application software or used for test and debugging of Napatech products. The tools are actively used and tested by the Napatech test and development teams.

The tools can be used for a variety of tasks:
  • Capture: For storing data to disk via the segment interface. The file can be replayed later with the Replay tool

  • Replay: Replay a data file stored with the Capture tool. Data will be replayed as received, that is with the same rate and sequence

  • Latency: Inspect packets with timestamp injection applied. The tool will calculate the round trip latency from when the packets are transmitted until they are received

  • Monitoring: Interactive tool used to monitor port statistics, sensors and color statistics

  • Osmode: Creates a virtual network adapter on top of the Napatech NTAPI. This enables a port to be used as a standard Ethernet device.

  • Profiling: Gain overview of how utilized host buffers are and where data is currently located

  • Pktgen: Generate and transmit packets to a specified port

  • Throughput: Shows the throughput from the adapter to the application

There are more tools which show information about adapter settings, configure ports, change filters on existing streams debugging, diagnostics, show timesync features and more.
