APS-M1010/APS-ONE-100 Platform for IxLoad
CHAPTER 1
Product overview
Welcome to the Keysight APS-M1010/APS-ONE-100 Platform documentation for IxLoad.
The APS-M1010/APS-ONE-100 Platform provides next-generation ultra-high-performance Layer 4 -
Layer 7 application and security testing, TLS support and 100G Interfaces. Industry-proven IxLoad
is the user interface application.
The platform consists of one management node (MN) or controller, that can manage up to ten
compute nodes (CN) and the Keysight Cluster Operating System (KCOS).
Both components of the APS-M1010/APS-ONE-100 Platform are required.
Standalone APS-ONE-100 functionality is NOT supported for IxLoad
lThe management node is used to manage the entire cluster of compute nodes and expose
administrative and test configuration functionalities to the user.
lThe compute nodes are used for generating custom traffic. They have QSFP28 interfaces for
connecting devices under test (DUTs). Compute nodes must have a functional management
node to operate.
lKeysight Cluster Operating System (KCOS) is the base operating system. It provides a
command line interface (CLI) and a command shell to enable user control of the various
services. It is a purpose-built platform that provides essential services, including host
management, user access control, software upgrades and cluster orchestration.

APS-M1010/APS-ONE-100 Platform for IxLoad
CHAPTER 2
Functionality overview
This chapter provides a functional overview of the APS-M1010/APS-ONE-100 Platform for IxLoad.
The entire system runs on the Keysight Cluster Operating System (KCOS). To perform any system-
level operation, you will need to use KCOS CLI commands (see the APS-100/400GE Series Plaform,
KCOS Command Line Interface (CLI), For IxLoad Release 9.45, CLI Reference Guide).
The following diagram provides a high-level system overview.
Management Node: The first block in the diagram represents the APS-M1010 Management Node
(MN). The MN is used to manage all of the compute nodes and provide administrative and test
configuration options to the user.

Compute Nodes: The second and third blocks in the diagram represent Compute Nodes. The
Compute Nodes are used for generating custom traffic. They have interfaces for connecting devices
under test (DUTs).
The "TestPorts" shown in the preceding diagram are displayed as Ports in the
IxLoad GUI.
Compute Nodes must have a functional Management Node to operate.
The bandwidth of each physical NIC shown in the diagram (consisting of 2 x
100G interfaces) is limited to 100G.

Rack mounting
The following guidelines are provided to optimize the device performance.
lMake sure cabling is away from sources of electrical noise. Radios, power lines, and fluorescent
lighting fixtures can interfere with the device performance.
lMake sure the cabling is positioned away from equipment that can damage the cables.
lOperating environment is within the ranges listed in the data sheet and installation guide.
lMake sure airflow around the APS-M1010/APS-ONE-100 and respective vents is unrestricted.
To rack mount the APS-M1010/APS-ONE-100 chassis:
1. Pull the inner rail out of the slide rail until it clicks.
2. Detach the inner rail completely from the slide rail by pulling the white tab forward.
3. After the inner rail is dislodged, adjust the middle rail back to its original position by pushing the
tab on the middle rail.
4. Install the inner rail onto the system barebone. Lock the keyholes and secure the screws on
sides of the system.

5. Continue installing the outer rail bracket to the mounting frame. Attach the outer rail
assembling to the frame and press the bracket to form a rack on both ends. Repeat to fully
mount the bracket assembly on the other side.
