Multicast Hammer

 

Test and validate unicast and multicast configurations on your network with Multicast Hammer: an easy to use, Java-based testing tool.

Since a multicast server does not typically know anything about the clients that it is sending traffic to, tracing or troubleshooting an issue in a multicast environment can be very challenging. Nortel IT created Multicast Hammer to help overcome these limitations, and has used it as a testing tool for trials of multicast products.

Multiple instances of the Multicast Hammer tool can be placed in various points within your network, in either Server or Client configurations, and will log events and generate traffic as configured by you.

October 2008 - Multicast Hammer Version 2.1 is released for Windows operating systems that support Java applications. Java version 1.4 or higher is required to run the tool.
