Massive Load Testing & API Control of SIP Protocol Emulation

GAITHERSBURG, Md., Aug. 13, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- GL Communications Inc., a global leader in telecom test and measurement solutions, addressed the press regarding SIP Protocol Emulator. The newer version is enhanced to simulate up to 20,000 User Agents using CSV based profiles to easily stress or load test network along with high density traffic. 

The Load Generation is also supported through APIs along with call statistics tracking capability. Test Automation and Remote Testing using Python client APIs is enhanced to support MSRP (Message Session Relay Protocol) sessions.

“GL’ MAPS™ SIP Emulator is enhanced with a few significant features such as CSV file support for massive User Agents (UA) simulation used in load testing,” said Vijay Kulkarni CEO of GL Communications. He added, “MAPS™ SIP Emulator tool supports SIP bulk call generation to stress and load test the network with number of subscriber profiles. Each profile can have unique parameters to simulate different real-time scenarios. However, creating and maintaining massive numbers of XML based subscriber profiles with unique Contact, Address of Records, recipient Address and other traffic parameters is not feasible. Therefore, recent enhancements were introduced to MAPS™ SIP Protocol Emulator test tool to include subscriber profiles in CSV file format. The CSV database system used within MAPS™ is a simple Excel^® file that can dynamically generate up to 20,000 User Agents.”

He further added, “Latest enhancements include Python API support for both versions 2 and 3, MSRP sessions, and Load Generation with Call Statistics. The MAPS™ application provides access to various functionalities remotely using Command Line Interface (CLI) and APIs clients such as Python, TCL, Java, VBScripts and others.”
