F5 Networks Deploys Ixia Test Solutions to Validate Extreme-Scale ADC Performance - Zibb.com

F5 Networks, Inc., a developer of application delivery networking solutions, and Ixia, a provider of converged IP performance test systems, announced the results of performance validation of the F5 Viprion Application Delivery Controller.

According to F5 Networks, the Viprion ADC was tested with its full complement of four blades, delivering layer 7 and SSL performance. Ixia's IxLoad, XM12 platform and Acceleron-NP load modules were used to exercise the ADC to its limits.

F5 Networks uses Ixia test equipment exclusively in its F5 Technology Center in Seattle, Washington, where it conducts very large scale demonstrations and proof of concept validations for its customers. With its complement of Ixia Acceleron-NP and application stream module (ASM) load modules, F5 is able to verify the maximum performance of its ADC, including throughput, and layer 4 and 7 connections and transactions per second (TPS and CPS) as well as maximum concurrent connections.

"Ixia is the only performance test vendor to offer a solution for ADCs, particularly in the difficult SSL TPS and layer 4 connections per second benchmarks," said Mike Lowell, Director of Product Management Engineering at F5 Networks. "Testing ADCs requires best-of-breed layer 4-7 testing equipment, so naturally Ixia was our vendor of choice."

In the most recent demonstrations, F5 said each Acceleron-NP load module was capable of 760,000 layer 4 connections per second and 38,700 SSL transactions per second. Only two Acceleron-NP load modules were needed to match Viprion's 1 million layer 4 connections per second and four load modules to test Viprion's 155,000 SSL transactions per second.

F5 Networks Uses Ixia Test Solutions to Validate Extreme-Scale ADC Performance - Zibb.com

F5 Networks, Inc. (NASDAQ: FFIV), the global leader in Application Delivery Networking (ADN), and Ixia (NASDAQ: XXIA), the leading, global provider of converged IP performance test systems, today announced the results of performance validation of the F5(R) top-of-the-line VIPRION(R) Application Delivery Controller (ADC). The VIPRION ADC was tested with its full complement of four blades, delivering industry-leading layer 7 and SSL performance. Ixia's IxLoad, XM12 platform and Acceleron-NP load modules were used to exercise the ADC to its limits.

F5 Networks uses Ixia test equipment exclusively in its F5 Technology Center in Seattle, Washington, where it conducts very large scale demonstrations and proof of concept validations for its customers. With its complement of Ixia Acceleron-NP and application stream module (ASM) load modules, F5 is able to quickly verify the maximum performance of its high-end ADC, including throughput, and layer 4 and 7 connections and transactions per second (TPS and CPS) as well as maximum concurrent connections. In the most recent demonstrations, F5 was very impressed with the performance of the Acceleron-NP load modules. Each Acceleron-NP load module was capable of 760,000 layer 4 connections per second and 38,700 SSL transactions per second. Only two Acceleron-NP load modules were needed to match Viprion's 1 million layer 4 connections per second and four load modules to test Viprion's 155,000 SSL transactions per second.

"Ixia is the only performance test vendor to offer a cost-effective solution for high-end ADCs, particularly in the difficult SSL TPS and layer 4 connections per second benchmarks," said Mike Lowell, Director of Product Management Engineering at F5 Networks. "Testing high-end ADCs requires best-of-breed layer 4-7 testing equipment, so naturally Ixia was our vendor of choice."

VIPRION: The Market's Only On-Demand Application Delivery Controller

VIPRION is the first application delivery controller that scales on demand. It provides the highest levels of throughput and transactions per second available using the F5 Networks(R) TMOS(R) platform to deliver massive performance and scalability using BIG-IP(R) Local Traffic Manager(TM) performance blades. This single, powerful controller uses modular blades that can be added or removed without disrupting applications. Instead of adding more devices in the network and segmenting applications, organizations can simply add more power to their existing infrastructure as needed.

Acceleron-NP is a unique development in the test industry. Each Acceleron-NP card offers twelve 1 Gbps interfaces that can be aggregated onto a single 10 Gbps link. Ixia's patent-pending NP technology creates multiple specialized, dynamically configured network processors that deliver performance not possible with standard architectures. Hundreds of network processors, specifically designed for layer 4-7 client emulation, are used to achieve Acceleron-NP's industry-leading performance. The performance difference between Acceleron-NP and its predecessor, the award-winning ASM load module, allowed F5 Networks to double their layer 4 CPS testing capacity without any increase in data center footprint.

"Ixia's dedication to providing solutions ahead of our customers' needs is well demonstrated by F5 Networks," said Atul Bhatnagar, President and CEO of Ixia. "Our NP technology, also used in our IxYukon-NP 10 Gbps interfaces, accelerates testing and time to market for our network equipment manufacturing customers."

F5 Networks and Quova form geolocation alliance - Zibb.com

Network equipment maker F5 Networks and Quova, a provider of IP geolocation data and services, have announced a partnership to enhance F5's ability to provide more intelligent context-aware application delivery solutions worldwide.

F5 said Quova technology maps IP addresses and related data to geographic locations, and this contextual location information solves many security problems. The company said the addition of Quova's IP geo data in its TMOS platform will allow F5 customers to solve a whole new range of business networking issues at the perimeter of the network rather than down at the web application level.

Calvin Rowland, VP of Application Partner Programs at F5, said: "Location is a critical, contextual element in the world of Application Delivery Controllers, and IP geolocation is all about identifying and managing customers around the world. We selected Quova over other geolocation vendors because of their data quality and accuracy. We are excited to enrich our BIG-IP portfolio with the additive capabilities enabled through Quova."

Earlier this year, F5 and Bytemobile, a vendor of data acceleration technology for mobile networks, formed a strategic systems integration partnership to deliver scalable and secure mobile internet offerings for wireless network operators.
