1. NuTAP-S61 Overview

1.1. General Description of NuTAP-S61

NuTAP-S61 is a portable network TAP device.
Embedded with 2 Network Ports and 2 Monitor Ports,
NuTAP-S61 can monitor and redirect any data
streams which flow through it. Moreover,
NuTAP-S61’s Console Port allows users to access
test data and configure test variables while serving
as an optional power source for NuTAP-S61.

Network TAP is a hardware device which allows
monitoring data flows in a network environment
dynamically without any interference.

As mentioned above, NuTAP-S61 is embedded with
two Network Ports and is capable of monitoring all data flows between two network points. All data traffic
flows between NuT AP-S61’ s Network Port A0 and A1 can be brought out f or further analysis and research
dynamically and without intervening network environment.

NuTAP-S61 is a compact, lightweight, and highly cost-effective device that provides 3 different filters for
users to choose: Forwarding Filter, Re-Direct Filter, and Capture Criteria. All these filters are powered by
Xtramus SDFR (Self-Discover Filtering Rules), which makes packet capturing/filtering over Ethernet easy
and convenient.

• 2 Network Ports and 2 Monitor Ports of 10/100 Mbps RJ45 Ethernet port

• 1 Console Port which allows users configuring test variables, accessing test results, upgrading

firmware/FPGA, and serving as NuTAP-S61’s optional power source while connected to PC with a
RJ45-to-USB cable＊

• Both Network Ports support Universal Stream Counter (USC), each USC can cont ain up to 256 sets

of statistics (up to 48-bits) including Packets, Bytes, Packet Broadcast, CRC Error, IPCS Error,
Packet Multicast, and Transferring Rate

• Utility software NuSet-MiniTAP that runs under Windows environment. When connecting NuTAP-S61

with your PC via an RJ45-to-USB cable, it allows users to:

¾ Upgrading NuTAP-S61’s firmware and FPGA
¾ Monitoring data flows in the network environment
¾ Configuring test settings and accessing test results
¾ Setting 2 sets of Session Filter including Port A → Port B and Port B → Port A
¾ Setting SDFR (Self-Discover Filtering Rules). SDFR is a set of filtering rules including Packets,

Bytes, Packet Broadcast, CRC Error, IPCS Error, Packet Multicast, and Transferring Rate

¾ Supports multi-language user-interface including Simplified Chinese and English

• Reset Button which allows users to reset all NuTAP-S61’s settings back to default value

• Utility Software that supports multi-language user-interface including Simplified Chinese and English

＊Note: When using Console Port as NuTAP-S61’s power source, please use the RJ45-to-USB cable that comes with

USC Counter

When monitoring data flows in a network environment with Network TAP devices, it is common to use
packet analyzers (or sniffers) for capturing and analyzing packet frames. However, information acquired
this way may be too vast and complicated for pinpointing the possible cause of network/product
problems.

Unlike these common packet analyzers or sniffers mentioned above, Universal Stream Counter (USC)
offers real-time statistics of network events during packet monitoring and capturing.

Each of NuTAP-S61’s Network Port contains two sets of Universal Stream Counters (USC 0/1), and
statistics about Line Rate, Packets, Bytes, Broadcast, Multi-cast, IP Check sum Error, and CRC

Error of all DA (Destination Address) can be viewed here in this page.

Command Descriptions – counter

The counter show command allows you to view all NuTAP-S61’s counter report, as
well as hardware temperature. You can also add additional commands behind the
counter show command as listed down below:

The counter show usc [a0 | a1] [group=0 | group=1] command allows you

show

usc

to view NuTAP-S61’s USC (Universal Stream Counter) report of its Network
Port (A0/A1) and the USC group. For example, to view the USC in USC
group 0 for Network Port A0, please input the command “counter show usc
a0 group=0”.

The counter show configure command allows you to view
USC’s settings.

clear

configure

The counter clear command allows you to clear all counters.

show

set

The refreshtime show command allows you to view the refresh time for the
report.
The refreshtime set command allows you to set the refresh time (in

seconds) for the report.
The counter setusc command allows you to configure NuTAP-S61’s USC (Universal
Stream Counter) settings. Please refer to the sections down below for detailed
descriptions. Also, to view command lists for USC settings, you can input “counter
help setusc”.

The counter setusc [a0 | a1] [group=0 | group=1] baseaddress [da
| sa | vid | mpls | dip | sip | dp | sp | vlancos | vid&vlancos] <value>
command allows you to change the specific base address for
NuTAP-S61’s certain Network Port (A0/A1) and the USC group.

Please refer to the table down below for command initial reference:

• DA: Destination Address

• SA: Source Address

• VID: VLAN ID

• MPLS: Multi-Protocol Label

For example, to set the USC in source IP address of USC group 0 for
Network Port A0 to 192.168.1.1, please input the command “counter
setusc a0 group=0 baseaddress sip 192.168.001.001”.

The setusc [a0 | a1] [group=0 | group=1] mode [normal | jitter]
command allows to change the mode for NuTAP-S61’s certain
Network Port (A0/A1) and the USC group. There are two modes
available here:

mode

• Normal: The USC will run

under normal mode.
For example, to set the mode of USC group 0 for Network Port A0 to
normal, please input the command “counter setusc a0 group=0
mode normal”.
The setusc [a0 | a1] [group=0 | group=1] [enable | disable]
command allows you to enable/disable NuTAP-S61’s certain Network

enable/disable

Port (A0/A1) and the USC group. For example, to enable USC group
0 for Network Port A0, please input the command “counter setusc a0
group=0 enable”.

• SIP: Source IP Address

• DP: Destination Port

• SP: Source Port

• VLANCOS: VLAN Class of

The monitor [m0 | m1 | port=all] header [da | sa | id | dip | sip | dport | sport | mtu]
<Parameter> command allows you to configure NuTAP-S61’s Monitor Ports M0/M1.
The configuration options available includes:

• DA: Destination Address

• SA: Source Address

• ID: ID

• DIP: Destination IP Address

• SIP: Source IP Address

• DPORT: Destination Port

• SPORT: Source Port

• MTU: Maximum Transmission Unit

For example, to set NuTAP-S61 Monitor Port M0’s destination port to port 9, please
input the command “monitor m0 header dport 0009”. The formats for each available
configuration option are listed down below:

• DA/SA: XX-XX-XX-XX-XX-XX

• ID: XXXX

• DIP/SIP: XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX

• DPORT/SPORT: XXXX

The monitor [m0 | m1 | port=all] header mode command allows you to set
the combinations of headers that will be added to packets to/from designated

/Uninstalling NuSet-MiniTAP

niTAP is a GUI (graphic user interface) utility software for setting test criteria and system

management. NuSet-MiniTAP supports NuTAP-S61 and NuTAP-311. When NuTAP-S61/NuTA P-311 is
connected with PC via its RJ45-to-USB cable, you can set test criteria, save/view testing results, and
upgrade firmware/FPGA with NuSet-MiniTAP.

However, b

efore using NuSet-MiniTAP’s features and functions, you have to install it on your PC first.

Both NuTAP-S61 and NuTAP-311’s drivers are contained in NuSet-MiniTAP. The required drivers and
NuSet-MiniTAP will be installed at the same time. Please note that DO NOT connect your
NuTAP-S61/NuTAP-311 to the PC before the installation.

Please follo

w the steps down below to install NuSet-MiniTAP.
