BreakingPoint Elite Data Sheet BreakingPoint Elite ™ Accelerate Development and Reduce Costs with Application, Performance and Security Testing Equipment from BreakingPoint The Price Performance Leader with 15 Million TCP Sessions, 40 Gigabits per second of Blended Layer 4-7 Traffic and 80 Gigabits per second of Layer 2-3 Traffic Network Equipment Manufacturers (NEMs), Server Vendors, and Service Providers (SPs) developing or deploying a new generation of equipment must: • Validate performance and functionality under realistic conditions • Accelerate development and time-to-market • Gain efficiencies and reduce costs in R&D, Quality Assurance, and operations BreakingPoint Elite provides comprehensive Layer 2-7 testing for network equipment and application servers in a high- performance, compact, flexible and easy-to-use product. Unlike legacy testing tools that are designed for HTTP-only test environments and struggle to generate realistic Layer 4-7 traffic, BreakingPoint Elite provides authentic application traffic blended with live security attacks at speeds of up to 40 Gigabits per second and faster. This combination of realism and high performance provides a dramatic reduction in time-to-test and accelerates development and deployment of next-generation network devices and servers. The small footprint BreakingPoint Elite chassis also generates 80 Gigabits per second of Layer 2-3 traffic and shatters all previous session performance and throughput capabilities by delivering 15 Million simultaneous TCP sessions and 1.5 Million TCP sessions per second. BreakingPoint Elite is the only product capable of testing the functionality of next- generation content-aware equipment, including Application Servers, Content Switches, Load Balancers, Proxies, Firewalls, Intrusion Detection and Prevention Systems, VPN Gateways, Virus and Spam Filters, and WAN Optimization devices. A single BreakingPoint Elite chassis delivers: • Realistic Blended Application Traffic on a Single Port: Find the breaking point of network equipment faster with the most authentic high-performance testing possible. One BreakingPoint Elite natively generates blended traffic with 70+ application protocols and 4,000+ live security attacks at up to 40 Gigabits per second. New applications are released weekly, and an API is available for creating proprietary application traffic. • Industry-Leading Session Performance and Throughput: Dramatically reduce costs with 15 Million simultaneous TCP sessions, 1.5 Million TCP sessions per second, up to 40 Gigabits per second of blended Layer 4-7 traffic and 80 Gigabits per second of Layer 2-3 traffic in a single small chassis. Scales easily with multiple BreakingPoint Elites to provide unlimited Layer 2-7 traffic using a single interface. • Easy-to-Use Automated Testing: Dramatically simplifies testing without sacrificing performance and realism. Intuitive management interface, application profile repository, multi-user capabilities, integrated reporting and extensive automation improve productivity and reduces time-to-test by 50% or more. • Price-Performance Leadership: Packs an enormous punch in a 3-slot chassis with the testing industry’s highest 10GigE port density, lowest cost per TCP session, lowest cost per Gigabit of blended Layer 4-7 traffic and lowest power consumption. www.breakingpoint.com
