to time and track frames from specified targets and destinations.
■ Port Activation license key — allows you to activate the additional ports you
purchase. Switch configurations available for purchase include of 8, 12, 16, and 20
ports.
■ 20-Gbit/sec license key — enables the XPAK ports to transmit and receive at 25.5-
Gbit/sec instead of the default 12.75-Gbit/sec.
