TRex
TRex is an affordable, open-source traffic generator that functions effectively in both stateful and stateless modes, utilizing DPDK to enhance its performance. It is capable of generating Layer 3 to Layer 7 traffic, effectively merging the capabilities of numerous commercial tools into one solution. The stateless mode allows users to manage multiple streams, alter packet fields, and obtain comprehensive statistics, including latency and jitter for each individual stream or group. In addition, its sophisticated stateful features facilitate the emulation of Layer 7 traffic, with extensive support for both TCP and UDP protocols. TRex also includes the ability to simulate a wide range of client-side protocols, including ARP, IPv6, ND, MLD, IGMP, ICMP, DOT1X, DHCPv4, DHCPv6, and DNS, which helps create a realistic testing environment for evaluating the scalability of both clients and servers. This robust set of functionalities not only enhances network testing and performance assessments but also positions TRex as a leading choice among tools for developers and network professionals alike. Its adaptability and extensive capabilities make it an essential resource for anyone looking to optimize their network infrastructure.

Obkio
Obkio helps IT teams, MSPs, and network engineers see exactly what's happening across their network, from the office to remote and hybrid workforces to the cloud. As a Network Performance Monitoring (NPM) and observability platform, Obkio uses lightweight software agents (no hardware needed) to continuously monitor latency, jitter, packet loss, and bandwidth while mapping the full network path with Visual Traceroutes.
The platform is built to handle the complexity of modern networks, with support for SD-WAN, MPLS, and VoIP/UC monitoring, as well as visibility across multi-site and distributed environments. Application performance monitoring (APM) is also included, covering HTTP, Web, and Teams-based tests. Obkio Insight takes this further with automated diagnostics that pinpoint the root cause of an issue, whether it's internal, an ISP problem, or a third-party service, backed by real performance data instead of guesswork.
Obkio is designed for fast deployment and clear results, giving teams the evidence they need to reduce downtime, meet SLAs, and confirm they're getting the network performance they're paying for.
