Version 107.04.03
New Features
NTP Mode 6 Vulnerability Security Fix.
Fixes
Defect Fix to resolve an issue with IPG at 10G and 25G.
Features Included
100GbE, 40GbE, 25GbE & 10GbE Interfaces (Optional functionality).
FEC On/Off selection for 100G and 25G interfaces.
25GbE: port 1/port 2 independent selection of FEC (e.g. 25GbE port 1 can be FEC Off and 25GbE port 2 can be FEC On and vice versa).
Support for Sync-E clock pass through (Optional functionality).
Support for external clock reference input (Optional functionality).
4/8/16 Multi-Profile Full Release (Optional functionality).

Script Recorder and Application API.
Copy/Clear Impairments.
Delete Profiles.

POST - Power On Self-Test.
Symbol Error Generation.
Known Issues
Changing memory allocation with traffic flowing can cause FCS error to occur. It is advised to stop traffic while changing memory allocation.
Available disk space is not checked prior to the user uploading PCAP files to the instrument. This could lead to very large files or numerous files filling the instrument hard disk.
Physical impairment symbol errors do not work on interfaces which use FEC - i.e. 25GbE SR and 100GbE SR4. This is because the FEC corrects any errors before transmission from A100G.
PCAP Import - During remote control analysis, the filename being analysed is incorrectly reported on the GUI.
