Today’s data networks are constantly challenged by more complex and
bandwidth-intensive applications. For network support engineers, identifying the
root cause of user application problems and IP network performance issues has
become a complex task. In an environment where reduced costs and increased
customer satisfaction are a priority, it is important to reduce the time it takes to
isolate problems and restore optimal network functionality.
For the most demanding network professional, JDSU offers the DA-3600A. In a
single chassis, the DA-3600A supports LAN, WAN, ATM, and Packet Over SONET
from 56Kbps to 2.4 Gbps. This unmatched flexibility is enhanced with hardwarebased analysis, 1 Gigabit of capture memory, and an internal 40 Gigabyte hard
disk drive. The result is the most flexible and powerful data network analyzer
available with the performance to meet the demanding needs of today’s converged
networks.

Features
Multiple technology support in one powerful instrument
JDSU ’s DA-3600A is a powerful instrument employing a sophisticated real-time
hardware engine that analyzes thousands of IP conversations simultaneously at
speeds up to 2.4 Gbps. The DA-3600A platform supports interfaces for LAN,
WAN, ATM, and POS, from T1/E1 to OC-48c/STM-16, in a single unit. This
ensures that the engineer has the tools and interfaces necessary to get the job
done.
Local and remote use
Small and portable, the DA-3600A supports both local and remote use. When
required, the DA-3600A can be left at a remote location to allow centrally located
engineers to perform troubleshooting. The DA-3600A can be configured and
shipped to a remote site for installation by untrained technicians. Once installed,
the unit can be fully operated from a remote location eliminating the need for onsite personnel.
Three modes of operation
The DA-3600A offers three modes of operation. The standard mode supports
Ethernet, WAN, and ATM analysis. For users requiring Packet Over SONET
support the DA-3600A supports the Advanced flow classifier application. This
allows users to perform monitoring, analysis, and troubleshooting on backbone
and peering links running IP or MPLS. The third mode is the streaming option
that allows a subset of network frames to be copied from the monitored circuit
and forwarded to third party applications for analysis in real-time.
Real-time signaling and routing protocol analysis
Whether troubleshooting routing update storms, monitoring TCP network
sessions, tracking VoIP call setups, or following mobile IP application activation,
the DA-3600A tracks the entire protocol message exchange process in realtime. In
addition to providing a detailed message view, a simple click of the mouse displays
the full decode of the message content, providing engineers with all the important
parameters of a particular protocol message exchange. This level of detail
dramatically reduces the time required to identify problems with network
infrastructure, locate equipment incompatibilities, and sectionalize network
bottlenecks (figure 1).

Comprehensive traditional analyzer capabilities
In addition to its advanced powerful real-time analysis capabilities, the DA-3600A
is packed with traditional troubleshooting features that enable post-capture
problem identification. The customizable filtering mechanism, generous 1
Gigabyte capture buffer, and sophisticated Examine seven-layer decode engine
support well over 1000 protocols. These features accelerate problem identification
and resolution.
Professional report generation
Presenting the results of an analysis session can be done using the integrated
report generator. Selected reports can be printed or stored on the DA-3600A for
later retrieval. Full scheduling is supported allowing selected reports to
automatically generated.
Circuit turnup
Turning up Metro Ethernet or ATM circuits can be accomplished using the DA3600A. The Ethernet turnup application generates traffic that insures an Ethernet
circuit is operating as designed. For ATM networks the user can employ the O.191
turnup capability to verify the proper operation of an ATM circuit (Figure 2).
VoIP and VoATM
Monitoring signaling and quality for packet voice deployments can be difficult.
This is made more difficult on converged voice and data netwoks. The DA-3600A
provides the ability to monitor quality and signaling in real-time. Identifying
problems related to jitter, packet loss, delay, and correlating call quality to overall
network traffic (Figure 3).
CLI and Scripting Interface
Configuration and operation of the DA-3600A can be done from a command line
interface that supports scripting. Scripts can be stored on the DA-3600A that
configure, start and stop analysis and automatically forward results. Incorporating
the DA-3600A into third party management systems can be easily done using the
scripting interface.

Advanced mode features Flow Classifier
For high-speed POS and Ethernet backbone networks the DA-3600A offers an
advanced flow classifier. This option allows statistics to be grouped based on userdefined parameters. Whether classifying IP flows based on MPLS labels, VLAN
tags, IP address, applications, or combinations of parameters, the DA-3600A can
maintain statistics on 160,000 unique flows (figure 4).
The Advanced Flow Classifier software also allows users to define filters and
triggers. This limits the traffic analyzed by the DA-3600A and controls the
function of the capture buffer. Users can define up to 160,000 unique filters using
a wide variety of parameters. String search filters are also supported allowing the
user to define a specific string of characters for filter-in or filter-out operations.
Results database
When operating in the advanced mode, the user results are stored in a database
on the DA-3600A. Users can export all or part of the database in order to generate
custom reports or for integration into other third party database applications.
Transmit
For POS and Ethernet transmit, the DA-3600A advanced mode offers users the
ability to define multiple frames. Using the integrated frame builder, GUI users
can modify the frame header fields to generate standard compliant as well as noncompliant frames, to test the effectiveness of security firewalls and router/switch
behavior. Stored transmit profiles can be populated with multiple user defined
frames that can be recalled and modified.
Peering link monitoring and analysis
The DA-3600A provides visibility into all IP flows occurring on any Packet Over
SONET peering link. With this visibility, carriers can truly see what traffic is
entering and exiting their peering links by monitoring IP traffic flows. The DA3600A can be configured to extract routing tables and provide statistics for each
defined AS (Autonomous System) in the routing table.
Streaming mode features
Streaming mode allows the DA-3600A to take frames matching specific user
defined criteria and forward them to a third party device in real-time. For
example, some network tools cannot operate at full line rate Gigabit Ethernet
speeds. Using the DA-3600A a filter can be defined to forward a subset of the
traffic in real-time to the network tool. Users may define IP addresses or
dynamically forward any IP conversation that contains a specific string.
