IXIA announced today their plans to perform a big test at Interop with Force10 for 10GE switching. It will require 280 IxYukon 10GE test ports, and end up sending and receiving 5.6 terabits per second of traffic. Quite a bit of traffic!
Seems that lot of people are doing the bigger/faster/more test stuff - Spirent did a 10GB test back in October that was, at the time, the largest. BreakingPoint also did a big test with Juniper back in March, although that test was markedly different in the goals and type of test.
Those of you going to Interop (I'm not) should stop by and let us know what it looks like.
