11. Document Number IPN600-1.3-08 11 Emulation Engine Functions as a layer 2 bridge connecting two LAN segments, forwarding packets received on one port across to the other port and applying the configured emulation conditions between a pair of Ethernet ports IPNetSim™ IPN600 Series

12. Document Number IPN600-1.3-08 12 Emulation Paths Up to 15 separate paths (emulated WAN links) may be configured within each Emulation Engine. WAN link can be any type of wide-area network connection between two sites including terrestrial private lines, shared networks such as the Internet, and specialized satellite or wireless networks. The WAN access device is usually a router, but can also be a cable or DSL modem or other type of device that connects an entire site or a single user to the wide-area network. Each path can be configured with its own bandwidth, delay, loss, and other WAN properties. IPNetSim™ IPN600 Series
