Java language wrapper around the award-winning software from Napatech

jNetNTAPI SDK for Java

Powerful API

jNetNTAPI SDK is a powerful API that provides a thin Java language wrapper around the award-winning software from Napatech. It forwards all function calls to the native Napatech libraries, ensuring accuracy and full performance of Napatech capabilities.

Real-Time Packet Capture

Real-time packet capture is possible with the high-speed Java jNetNTAPI SDK and a SmartNIC network adapter from Napatech. This allows you to capture packets from a live network without impacting performance.

Unmatched Performace

jNetNTAPI SDK provides unmatched performance for packet capture, inline forwarding with monitoring, and packet transmission. It can handle full line speeds of up to hundreds of gigabits per second, thanks to hardware acceleration.

The jNetNTAPI SDK is a specialized library that will be released in Q2 2023. It grants access to low-level NT_API functions for SmartNIC adapters from Napatech A/S.

Here is a more detailed explanation of what the jNetNTAPI SDK is and what it does:

The jNetNTAPI SDK is a software development kit (SDK) that provides access to low-level NT_API functions for SmartNIC adapters from Napatech A/S.
NT_API functions are a set of functions that provide access to the underlying hardware of a SmartNIC adapter.
The jNetNTAPI SDK can be used to develop applications that take advantage of the advanced features of SmartNIC adapters in Java.
SmartNIC adapters are network interface cards (NICs) that have been designed to offload certain tasks from the host CPU. This can improve the performance of applications that are sensitive to network latency or throughput.
The jNetNTAPI SDK is a valuable tool for developers who want to create high-performance applications that use SmartNIC adapters in Java programming environment.

Highlights of jNetNTAPI features as they relate to Napatech software suite:

Config stream API - configures Napatech hardware
Net stream API - packet capture and transmission
Info stream API - query hardware information

Flow stream API - per flow packet handling

Event stream API - hardware sensor events
Statistics stream API - passive statistics collection
