The Impairment load modules have a single-slot form factor and are inserted into a high-density XM2 or XM12 chassis to provide 2 to 12 modules per chassis configuration.
The load modules offer 4x1GE, 4x10GE, or 2x40GE Ethernet interfaces that can emulate 64, 32, or 8 unidirectional network clouds respectively. The high-density 1GE, 10GE, and 40GE Impairment test modules are ideal for emulating real-life network impairments.
The modules can emulate a WAN environment and simulate network characteristics, such as delay, delay variation, and impairments, such as packet loss, duplication, and re-ordering. EIMs support the Impairment feature in IxNetwork and IxLoad applications that provide a quick and easy way to set up impairments, across multiple emulated WAN links.
Using EIM ports, IxNetwork and IxLoad are capable of generating a number of impairments, for example, packet drops, latency, or packet re-ordering, which replicates real-life WAN traversal conditions, whereby packet flows are impaired in different modes when traversing a network. The EIM40G2Q load module is not supported in IxLoad
