Ixia Software Release Notes
IxNetwork 9.14 Patch1
Build Number: 9.14.2105.16 (August 2, 2021)



About This Release

IxNetwork 9.14 Patch 1 is a software release targeted for the Virtual Edition platform. This release is focused on enhancing the DPDK Traffic Engine capabilities, on introducing new 100G Virtual Edition licenses,
on improving the License Aggregation Mode algorithm, and on addressing issues reported by our customers.

The DPDK Traffic Engine has been designed to greatly improve the L23 Data Plane performance for IxNetwork VE. It is capable of generating up to 10 Gbps @ 64 Bytes and 100 Gbps @ 1024 Bytes from
one single Virtual Port. Starting with this release the DPDK Traffic Engine is enabled by default for any newly created configuration file while existing configuration files and API scripts will continue to use the
Classic Traffic Engine by default. The DPDK Traffic Engine does require more hardware resources for optimal performance therefore the minimum resources for the Virtual Load Modules / Virtual Test Appliance
images in OVA / QCOW2 formats is increased to 4 vCPU / 4 GB RAM starting with this release. The list of supported NICs when the DPDK Traffic Engine runs in PCI-PT or SR-IOV mode is also expanded starting
with this release to all of Intel 10G / 25G / 40G NICs from the 5xx / 7xx families and Mellanox 10G / 25G / 40G / 50G / 100G / 200G NICs from the ConnectX-3 / ConnectX-4 / ConnectX-5 / ConnectX-6 families.

This release introduces new TIER-0 / TIER-1 / TIER-2 / TIER-3 licenses with 100G Line Speed capability for IxNetwork Virtual Edition in order to allow users to benefit from the increased performance enabled
by the DPDK Traffic Engine. These 100G Virtual Editions licenses can be used stand-alone or in conjunction with lower speed 1G / 10 G licenses via the License Aggregation Mode feature. This feature now
utilizes an improved license calculation algorithm which results in optimal license consumption across all test configurations. When running in License Aggregation Mode the application now automatically
updates the license requirements on various user actions such as adding and removing ports, changing line speed, starting and stopping protocols, or running App Library / Quick Tests. Lastly the user can
now display the license requirements directly in the IxNetwork GUI via the License Summary dialog.

IxNetwork Virtual Edition 9.14 Patch 1 only supports Private Cloud platforms powered by ESXi / KVM hypervisors and vCenter / OpenStack orchestrators. This release is not supported in Amazon Public Cloud.
This release only supports Virtual Ports and it does not support Hardware Ports. Lastly this release does not have a corresponding IxLoad VE 9.14 Patch 1 compatible release. Any user who wants to use IxNetwork
in Amazon Public Cloud, or use IxNetwork Hardware Ports, or use IxNetwork and IxLoad together, should utilize the IxOS 9.10 / IxNetwork 9.10 / IxLoad 9.10 releases instead. Please see the sections below for more
details on application and hardware compatibility, new features, resolved defects, and known issues.

Installation Notes

  

Prerequisites

As part of the IxNetwork installation, the installer installs Microsoft SQL Express and Microsoft .Net Framework on a client machine and Microsoft .Net Framework on a chassis. Windows client and chassis should have all the windows updates installed. If you experience any issue related to the installation of these prerequisites, please uninstall any existing versions, reboot, and reattempt installation.

IxNetwork Installation

IxNetwork has two components: The 'chassis' component needs to be installed on the Ixia windows chassis being used or when using a native IxOS chassis it is included in the IxOS install package. It is required to install IxOS before installing the IxNetwork 'chassis' component. The 'client' component needs to be installed on the user-provided Windows workstation where the IxNetwork GUI will be run. The Web Edition 'client' component can be deployed on VMware ESXi, KVM, Docker or directly on a Native IxOS chassis.
