Who we are
IWL is a California company creating computer networking products. DevOps teams use IWL network emulators and protocol testers to test and deploy apps and devices in the cloud, the internet, and mobile networks. Our network emulator products mimic the types of conditions an app or device would encounter on a real-world network. Our protocol testing products test apps and devices for conformance and robustness to industry standards.
Why do business with IWL
No charge consulting from qualified staff. More than 90% of our staff have a master's degree and about 20 years of hands-on networking experience. We provide no-charge consulting to help you implement our products in the most cost-effective manner.
Our staff members have chaired IETF working groups (and are cited as contributors in several others). Our active participation in the IETF meetings and the creation of RFCs and Internet-Drafts ensures our deep understanding of networking protocols and provides you with the competence required to advise you on protocol implementation and test methodology.
DARPA selected IWL's network emulators to create the degraded network conditions for the DARPA Robotics Challenge and DARPA Robotics Finals. Our deep technical expertise helped shape and define the degraded network performance for this important leading edge effort.
The developers of freely available network emulators use IWL's commercial network emulators, even though our network emulators do not use the freely available code. Why? Our network emulators are calibrated and meet the calibration requirements of the medical device industry.
Our staff participates in NANOG (North American Network Operators Group) and are featured, keynote speakers at NANOG events.
Our advisory boards for protocol testing include the experts in the subject protocol so that we can assure that our protocol tests are accurate and reflect the true meaning of the RFCs.
IWL proudly sponsors the Internet Protocol Journal
