9 Complete Network Visibility and Access to Data Xgig’s extensive capabilities and flexibility provide unmatched visibility into networks to simplify problem identification and resolution, accelerate new product design, and speed time-to-market. Largest Trace Capture Buffers With the ability to capture up to 2 GB of traffic per port—up to 16 GB per blade—developers can be sure they have enough trace data to resolve even the most elusive problems Performance Measurements Graphic display of useful performance statistics for every active link Hide Non-Relevant Data Preset ordered filters hide traffic-control primitives to clear data display clutter so developers can focus on specific frames or packets Adjustable Payload Size Reduces trace size and enables capture of extra frame-header information by truncating payloads/frames Drag-and-Drop Filters Simplify filter setup with pre-defined protocol templates Customized Filters Template editor enables creation of user-defined protocol templates for advanced filtering SCSI Expert View Simplify trace analysis by collapsing exchanges and associated behavioral information into a single event in the Data Inspector pane Protocol Tree View Displays the tree structure of data when it is mapped to the current protocol Histogram View Enables users to focus on small areas of a trace, change the appearance and scale of graphs, and show/hide traces DWORD View Provides a detailed view for each line of TraceView’s Summary View Flexible Development Platform With its blade architecture and configurable multi-functional capabilities, Xgig is the most flexible development platform for network tools available today. Multiple Probing Methods Xgig supports two flexible probing modes: Digital Retiming and Analog Pass-through Flexible Internal Trigger Five trigger modes enable users to capture trace data intelligently: 1) Stop capture with stop button - no trigger; 2) Stop capture after trigger; 3) Arm on arm condition, stop capture after trigger condition when armed; 4) Arm then stop after trigger, rollback on reset condition; 5) Stop when memory full External Trigger Support Allows Xgig platform to trigger or be triggered by an external device through two BNC TTL ports Trace File Support Correlate traffic within devices using traces captured by the Bus Doctor Analyzer and I-Tech PowerFrames and analyzed using TraceView and Expert Choice of Decode Engine Choose between the JDSU optimized Xgig proprietary decode engine or the Surveyor decode engine Leverage Test Equipment Investment Test equipment is a significant investment for network companies, and Xgig’s unified platform enables users to get the most capabilities and performance for their money. Multi-Function Support Unified platform dynamically changes blade functionality—Analyzer, Jammer, BERT, SAS/SATA Traffic Generator, Fibre Channel Load Tester—all without changing hardware Multi-User Capabilities Supports up to 32 concurrent users Wide Connectors Connect to more ports with wide-port/4x SAS/SATA connection and double-wide SAS/SATA blade Scalable Configuration Connect up to 4 chassis for unified triggering, capturing, and analysis for comprehensive analysis and visibility across even the most complex networks. Chassis each have one, two, or four slots, and each slot can support two- or four-port blades for coordinated monitoring and time-syncing of up to 64 ports of mixed protocol traffic Scalable Licensing Add new tools on-demand through software upgrades
