UNCLASSIFIED DSTO Network Analysis Tool (DNAT) - A potential partnership opportunity The DNAT is a field-deployable distributed network characterisation software suite used for tactical IP radio networks. It enables measurement of actual network performance in typical tactical data network configurations. 13
UNCLASSIFIED DSTO Network Analysis Tool (DNAT) - For whom, and why? Used as the primary network test tool in both field and laboratory radio network testing in support of current Land Projects LAND75, LAND2072, and LAND2097. Providing DSTO and Army a better understanding of the constraints and considerations when deploying contemporary state-of-art radios (e.g. EPLRS, ANW2, and SRW) in typical land-based tactical networks. 14
UNCLASSIFIED DSTO Network Analysis Tool (DNAT) - Key features Radio network traffic stimulation and logging software suite Designed for use on low bandwidth networks Enables both real-time and post-test analysis of network performance Customisable traffic scenarios Single ‘Master’ node controls and orchestrates each traffic scenario Interface modules written for specific radios Extensible framework facilitates integration with future radios 15
