NetIQ 公司的Chariot 4.0版作为网络测试和通信量仿真工具,能够预计在新的应用软件投入使用后网络将如何运转。另外,运行于多种桌面操作系统上的 Chariot 端点被重新设计以更有效地与 Chariot 中央控制台(EWEEK 试验室已测试了它在 Windows2000 服务器上的运行情况)通信。4.0版远远超过了以前版本支持的1200左右的连接数量,在测试中还能仿真数以千计的用户。但使用 Chariot 早期版本的用户必须进行升级并重新部署其端点,才能使用 Chariot4.0版的新功能。虽然上月发售的 Chariot4.0能够在网上仿真上万个最终用户的通信量,但那些需 NetIQ’s version 4.0 of Chariot, as a network testing and traffic simulation tool, predicts how the network will work once new applications come online. In addition, Chariot endpoints running on many desktop operating systems have been redesigned to more effectively communicate with the Chariot Central Console (which has been tested by EWEEK Labs on a Windows 2000 server). Version 4.0 goes far beyond the number of connections supported by previous releases of around 1,200 and can simulate thousands of users in the test. However, users using earlier versions of Chariot must upgrade and redeploy their endpoints to use the new features in Chariot 4.0. Although Chariot 4.0, which was launched last month, is capable of simulating thousands of end-user traffic online, those needs
