Industrial environments are increasingly being standardized with IP and Ethernet based networks. Though the communication protocols used are predominantly same as the ones used in enterprise networks, some protocols such as MRP and Real-time Ethernet that are specific to Industrial networks.
As network equipment manufacturers continue to develop products using open platforms and third-party software,
the availability of Net-O2's comprehensive automated tests for verifying industrial networking protocols,
provides the advantage of reduced testing time and shorter time to market, with enhanced quality.
Net-O2's Industrial Networking test offerings are available as part of Net-O2 ATTEST-CTS.
Net-O2 ATTEST-CTS MRP test suite verifies Conformance to Media Redundancy Protocol (MRP) as defined by IEC 62439: Industrial communication networks: high availability automation networks.
- 65c, 62439/Ed 1.0, 2007-04-06 is a key functionality in the implementation of Ethernet-based Industrial Networks.
ATTEST MRP test cases verify the support for both MRP Manager (MRM) and MRP Client (MRC) state machine implementations.
