The Maxwell Network Emulator helps network managers, software developers and testers learn how their products will perform in real-world production networks including satellites and the Internet.

• By capturing and changing network flows, Maxwell can induce the conditions that cause network congestion, slow links, time outs, and many other adverse network conditions.
• Network managers can then see the effects on the device or application to find and fix bugs, solve network problems, and learn the limits of device and application performance.

Maxwell Key Benefits

• Scenario driven user interface – select the situation you wish to emulate
• Graphical, command line, or script-driven interface for maximum flexibility
• Highly accurate and realistic network traffic emulations via multiple flows
• Saves testing time by permitting changes on the fly without reloading or restarting
• Enhances regression testing by saving and reloading config files and logging data
• Fully programmable and customizable using C or C++
• Quick and easy setup -- less than fifteen minutes

Multi-Purpose and Versatile

• For testing, validation, and troubleshooting, Maxwell helps test and replicate bugs in new releases and at customer sites by replicating a production network
• For demonstrations, tradeshows, training, and learning, Maxwell emulates a real-world network so that engineers can understand how to correlate network behavior with the cause of that behavior to learn how the network operates and how your product performs.
• Use Maxwell for all network technologies and applications, including VoIP, video conferencing, SANs, wireless, mobile, VPN, and many more...

Use Maxwell through a GUI, scripts, or a number of published APIs and dynamic plugins.

Find problems before anyone else does

As network applications proliferate and users attach new types of devices to networks, the need for high QoS and better packet compensation algorithms increases. Using the Maxwell, you can discover hidden problems that only reveal themselves at the worst possible moments and fix them, saving time, money, and your reputation.
