Creating an NQA test group, Configuring ICMP echo tests

Page 108 highlights

Step 1. Enter system view. 2. Enable the NQA client. Command system-view nqa agent enable Remarks N/A Optional. Enabled by default. Creating an NQA test group Create an NQA test group before you configure NQA tests. To create an NQA test group: Step 1. Enter system view. 2. Create an NQA test group, and enter the NQA test group view. Command Remarks system-view N/A nqa entry admin-name operation-tag In the NQA test group view, you can specify the test type. You can use the nqa entry command to enter the test type view of an NQA test group with test type configured. Configuring an NQA test group Configuring ICMP echo tests ICMP echo tests of an NQA test group uses ICMP echo response information to test reachability of a destination host. An ICMP echo test has the same function as the ping command but provides more output information. In addition, you can specify the next hop for ICMP echo tests. ICMP echo tests are used to locate connectivity problems in a network. NQA ICMP echo tests are not supported in IPv6 networks. To test the reachability of an IPv6 address, use the ping ipv6 command. For more information about the command, see Network Management and Monitoring Command Reference. To configure ICMP echo tests: Step Command 1. Enter system view. system-view 2. Enter NQA test group view. nqa entry admin-name operation-tag 3. Configure the test type as ICMP echo, and enter test type view. type icmp-echo 4. Configure the destination address of ICMP echo requests. destination ip ip-address 5. Configure the size of the data field in each ICMP echo data-size size request. 101 Remarks N/A N/A N/A By default, no destination IP address is configured. Optional. 100 bytes by default.

Configuring an NQA test group
Configuring ICMP echo tests
ICMP echo tests of an NQA test group uses ICMP echo response information to test reachability of a
destination host. An ICMP echo test has the same function as the
ping
command but provides more
output information. In addition, you can specify the next hop for ICMP echo tests. ICMP echo tests are
used to locate connectivity problems in a network.
NQA ICMP echo tests are not supported in IPv6 networks. To test the reachability of an IPv6 address, use
the
ping ipv6
command. For more information about the command, see
Network Management and
Monitoring Command Reference.
