Scripts
Automating your tests – Run any tests the way you need!
The TSW900ETH, by the management port, has scripts support.
Script support is a flexible platform that allows implementing specific user’s needs. The user
can configure and run all tests, traffic generation functions and measurements by commands.
Development of scripts can be used remotely, by PC or embedded, customizing any test you
need.
Functionalities
Remote and Interactive Tests
Test Automation
Example:
EtherSAM ITU-T Y.156sam
With Script option, run the ITU-T Y.156sam algorithm in the TSW900ETH,
just pressing a button. (Whether from the product or from a PC).
