We use an application called BurnInTest. If you copy it’s “endpoint” application to an accessory PC and set its network module into advanced mode you can specify a network load level between the two. It also has a built in scrolling H pattern as well as CPU, memory, hard disk, and video stress modules. It has proven to be extremely useful for our lab.

I'm curious as to what types of software tools\apps are being used to generate and verify this desired level of LAN traffic for conducted emissions measurements in accordance with EN 55022. I'm referring to the following clause in 9.6.3: "In order to make reliable emission measurements representative of high LAN utilization it is only necessary to create a condition of LAN utilization in excess of 10 % and sustain that level for a minimum of 250 ms. The content of the test traffic should consist of both periodic and pseudo-random messages in order to emulate realistic types of data transmission (e.g. random: files compressed or encrypted; periodic: uncompressed graphic files, memory dumps, screen updates, disk images). If the LAN maintains transmission during idle periods measurements shall also be made during idle periods (see Clause E.3, [7])." I'm also referring to ECANB TGN 16, section 3 (Guidelines) where it is recommended that a 10% - 20% traffic rate be used, and where it is flatly stated that a 100% traffic rate will fail with the recommended ISN.
