Ixverify

What is Ixverify?

IxVerify is a load testing software by Keysight that helps engineers check chip designs before they are physically built (pre-silicon), especially for networking devices like ASICs, SmartNICs, switches, and routers.

It allows the creation of heavy network traffic using hundreds of virtual ports to see how well the chip handles data, protocols like Ethernet/TCP-IP, and network stress.

The software includes over 450 pre-made packet templates, saving time in test setup. It also supports advanced testing features like MACsec encryption, bad input (negative testing), and very high-speed traffic up to 1.6 terabits.

IxVerify works with chip emulators and virtual test environments so testing can start early, reducing expensive design errors later.

It provides detailed performance metrics such as nanosecond-level latency tracking and lets teams reuse test setups across both pre- and post-silicon stages, making the development process smoother and more efficient.
