The 10GE Jammer RTM release- Maestro version 4.8, is now available on the Finisar Software Portal. In this release, we have added a couple of new features in addition to 10GE Jammer Early Adopter release. Customers with 10GE Jammer Early Adopter are encouraged to upgrade with Maestro 4.8 in order to receive these new features. The software can be downloaded from the Finisar Network Tools Software Portal.

10GE Jammer Feature Highlights in Maestro 4.8:

• Capable of changing FC portion of an FCoE frame without corrupting the frame. This means that the E-CRC as well as embedded FC-CRC will be re-calculated after the Jam
  
• Capable of changing IP packets. The IP checksum can be recalculated after modifying the packet*
  
• Added FCoE, FIP, PFC, DCBX and VLAN Ethernet frame template for configuring the Jam for these protocols
  
• Added “Insert user defined frame on trigger” feature. This feature can be used to insert PFC Pause frame to test the response time to pause request at the transmission end
  
• Added “Insert duplicated frame on trigger” feature. This feature can be used to create an out of sequence exchange
  
• Capable of inserting a DWORD in a frame on trigger. This feature can be used to add VLAN tag on a non-VLAN Ethernet frame. The feature is highly needed for FCoE testing as all the FCoE frames are VLAN tagged. It can also be used to increase the payload size*
  
• Can still modify, truncate a frame or delete a frame on trigger just like Fibre Channel Jammer
