Anyone can recommend or even just name drop network quality measurement kit?
I'm only familiar with IP SLA, RPM and Creanord (and various inhouse tools:)
What I'd like to see - 1us or better one-way jitter (no need for clock sync, just accurate clock) - tens or 100us one-way latency (as good as cheaply can get sync, ntp is ok) - 1us or better RTT - any-to-any measurement, not just hub<->spoke (or sufficiently cheap hub) - 100pps to 100 measurement points on 8 CoS (ish, less may be acceptable) - randomized payload pattern + verification (to catch bit mangling) - randomized sport/dport (to put traffic in each ECMP/LAG combo, long term) - programmatic accesss and useful documents to measurement data (e.g. some OSS TSDB) - high quality, fast, useful graphical reporting and alarming - support for TWAMP and OWAMP responders - indicative price <100kEUR CAPEX and <2000EUR YRC for 100 nodes solution
