The EEA tool makes possible to simulate AFDX communication with a standard Ethernet Card.

Thanks to EEA tool, AFDX queuing and sampling for transmission and reception, messages recording, traffic shaping and AFDX parameters management upon emissions and controls upon receptions are possible with an Ethernet card.

Running on a standard PC with Windows or Linux platform, this software, compliant with AIM libraries, allows simulating up to 4 AFDX ports.

For more information...

100% compatible with the functions exported by AFDX AIM library
      V12.0x Rev. A, November 2004. Functions implemented or supported.
Individual mode available for simulation of AFDX features : Input and
     Output, Sampling and Queuing
Controls available on AFDX parameters: sequence number, VL frame
     length, IP checksum, MAC address format, …
Ethernet cards selection (up to four ports).
Priority management : global and RX/TX.
Log file

No RMA redundancy mechanism for the second AFDX bus (port B),
No recording capacity or AFDX traffic monitoring available (Chronological
     mode),
No generic or replay modes (no continuous transmission or AFDX traffic
     replay),
No remote ANS server access (AIM Network Server),
No external synchronization through external trigger,
Great performances for simulation

SAP functions (Rx and Tx)
High level interfaces with applications (java applications, …)

The new version v2.4 of EEA Tool is now available!

New version purpose:

	Memory leak corrected in special case (Frames received on non defined ports).
	Improvement of fragmented frames handling in reception (FIFO length).
	AFDX conformity increased.
	Log messages updated.

EEA options: SAP functions.
