How does Octopus work?

Octopus-Architecture

Octopus verifies compliance of end-to-end 3GPP procedure in the EPC, converged core, or other combination of setups. It’s completely automated and can be hooked up to any deployed network and take capture on all the interfaces. It also does protocol validation of messages as per specifications for the sequence of messages.

Octopus is configurable to capture packets from various interfaces. They are fed to a sophisticated event engine to detect compliance, failures, and pinpoint them for quicker resolution. The framework works with all popular test generation tools.
