The Data Communications Group of Hammer Technologies is pleased to announce that a new distribution of ANVL is now available to support customers!  

This maintenance release improves the stability and quality of one of our most widely used test suites, OSPF.
If you have a current support contract and are interested in the new OSPF release, please respond to this message. If your support has expired, or you are unsure of the status of your support contract, you may also respond to this message and we will contact you.

We will make the maintenance release available via web download. Upon receiving your request for the new release, we will place your request in queue, and contact you to let you know how to access the software. Each ANVL distribution is customized, so we will serve our customers on a first-come, first-served basis. We expect to be able to accommodate everyone within a few weeks.

In addition to the enhancements to the OSPF test suite, Release 3.3 offers two new TCP test suites (Advanced and Performance), two new IPSec test suites (AH and ESP) and Gigabit Ethernet capability over Linux.  The Advanced TCP suite includes over 40 tests as specified in RFCs 2001, 2581, 1191 and 2385.  The Performance TCP suite includes over 50 tests as specified in RFC 1323, 2018, half-close and RTO.  These two suites can be purchased individually, or in addition to the TCP core suite that was included in Release 3.2.

Release 3.3 also includes our first two IPSec test suites, Authentication Header and Encapsulated Security Payload.  The Authentication Header suite includes 40 tests as specified in RFC 2402.  The Encapsulated Security Payload suite includes 60 tests as specified in RFC 2406.  The Gigabit Ethernet interface, TCP suites and IPSec suites are not included under the maintenance release.  However, they can be added to your existing license by purchasing them through your local sales representative.  Please contact Hammer at 888-888-8888 for pricing details.
