Additional options
This section is designed to give a brief overview of relevant additional options. Please
refer to the E6474A Wireless Network Optimization Platform configuration guide,
literature number 5988-2396EN, for comprehensive configuration details.
Software
Data measurement software license, E6474A-700
This data measurement capability utilizes a client / server architecture, where the client is
the test mobile and laptop combination and the server is a remote computer connected to
an IP interface within the network. The data control and measurement user interface
resides on the client laptop. The Agilent E6474A system is designed to allow a single
server to support several clients. The data measurement sequence controller allows the
user to construct flexible transmit and receive data geometries with programmable delays
for both UDP and TCP mechanisms. Ping, Trace Route and multiple FTP and http
transactions can also be included in the sequence.
Data measurement functionality on both transmit and receive paths (e.g., application
throughput, IP throughput, IP bit error rate, data fragmentation and delay) will only be
supported with the purchase of both E6474A-700 and -710. E6474A-700 can be used
without the Agilent server software E6474A-710. This will enable the sequencing of
access to public ftp and http sites enabling the measurement of total bytes downloaded,
time to download, and data throughput at the application layer.
Data measurement server software license, E6474A-710
The server is the target for the above data measurement option (E6474A-700). It
calculates transmit path measurement results, as detailed above, and transmits them
together with the requested data pages back to the mobile client for analysis and
characterization. E6474A-710 requires the purchase of at least one data measurement
software license (E6474A-700) and will support several option 700s. The E6474A-710
software resides on the server and, once installed, can operate unmanned.
For detailed information on the data measurement capabilities, refer to the Agilent
Wireless Data Measurement product overview, literature number 5980-2310E and the
Agilent Wireless Data Measurement data sheet, literature number 5988-1507EN.
The Wireless Application Measurement Software (WAMS) license, (E6474A-
740)
WAMS enables wireless data services testing on, for example, MMS, SMS, email, WAP,
http, voice connectivity, video connectivity and FTP applications. This option provides an
extremely flexible test sequencer engine and user experience measurements that include
TCP throughput, Server Response Time, Authentication Time and Data Download Time on
the real data applications. These measurements provide verification of the wireless data
delivery chain, giving quick identification of data network problem areas and highlighting
whether they are for example RF, backhaul or Internet service provider related.
For further detail refer to the Agilent Data Service Assurance (DSA) Product Overview
(5989-0469EN) and the Wireless Application Measurement Software Data Sheet
(5989-0470EN).
