You should be able to specify the configuration file in the Spirent TestCenter Session Properties. Start a new Spirent TestCenter session, and there is a property named "Configuration file:".
Can you please be more specific? I saved my configuration session in the appropriate xml format. Can you please tell me the steps
where I should save it in which directory, and then how do I load that config file when I run fanfare configuration load command, using
full path?
It's not very clear.
You can save the XML in any folder in your iTest workspace. Then click the "Browse" button and pick that XML file from the dialog. After you pick the file, it would look something like "project://project/myconfigfolder/myconfig.xml".Once you populate that filed and start the session,the file will get loaded. Below is a sample log.
Loading configuration file D:\work\itest\project\routers_seq.xml...
Preparing XML config file... OK
Disconnecting from chassis... OK
Loading project... OK
Attaching to physical ports... OK
Applying configuration... OK
Refreshing session ports... OK
Loading configuration file D:\work\itest\project\routers_seq.xml finished with OK
You can open iTest help and navigate to "iTest Help > Tasks > Spirent TestCenter steps in test cases" to get some some information.
That doesn't give me correct url
this is what I see
Spirent TestCenter>configuration load C:\Documents and Settings\alraytse\My Documents\iTest\project\ISBU_Spirent_TestCenter\spirnet_config_files\Sample.xml
Invalid format for argument 'file'
'C:\Documents' is not a valid Fanfare URL
Spirent TestCenter>
You want to put quotes around the path since it has spaces in it.
e.g.
configuration load "C:\Documents and Settings\alraytse\My Documents\iTest\project\ISBU_Spirent_TestCenter\spirnet_config_files\Sample.xml"
This should work.
I also noticed that path to the file is not in Fanfare URL format( e.g. "project://project/myconfigfolder/myconfig.xml").
You might have to use "project://project/ISBU_Spirent_TestCenter/spirnet_config_files/Sample.xml" to provide a valid Fanfare URL to the file. Hope this helps.
I am not sure what I am doing wrong.. but I am unable to load my config...
However I have another question ? Is there a way to display the stats
the way I can do it, using Ixia?
My stats window is empty.
ps can you call or email me?

If you are asking for help on how to view stats in Spirent TestCenter, please contact Spirent support.
If you have connected to TestCenter using iTest, "show ?" will list all the show commands. You will see that you can do "show stats port 1:1" to see the stats on card1 port1.
Hello, and welcome to the forum!
iTest has been tested and verified to work with Spirent Test Center v2.01; we have not tested it against v2.22. Could you give me some more background information in terms of your environment? Which version of iTest are you using? Did you ever have Spirent Test Center v2.01 installed in your environment, and have you developed iTest Test Cases running against v2.01?
