What’s new

What’s new

FortiTester 7.2.1 offers the following new features and enhancements:

Function enhancement

FortiTester 7.2.1 extends the maximum number of subnets to 16.

FortiTester 7.2.1 extends the maximum number of configurations in an iMIX object to 20.

FortiTester 7.2.1 will show two new columns for statistics, which is "Send PPS" and "Receive PPS"

iMIX BPS to FPS

FortiTester can perform iMIX testing. Pre 7.2.1 calculation of packet distribution was done based on "weight' variable in GUI, FortiTester used weight to calculate bandwidth per second (BPS). in 7.2.1 FortiTester introduce a new way to test using frames per second (FPS). Note this is more inline with Breaking Point distribution, hence it's the default. Users can switch back to BPS if necessary using CLI. For details between BPS and FPS, please refer to administration guide.

The command is diagnose weighttype setting disable/enable.

Disable: Weight type of iMIX object takes as FPS.

Enable: Weight type of iMIX object takes as BPS.
