Test parameter

Description

Interval to send jitter test
packets (jitter-interval)

Each jitter probe will send multiple UDP test packets at regular intervals (you can
set the interval). The smaller the interval is, the faster the test is. But a too small
interval may somewhat impact your network.

Enable the HWPing client to
send Trap messages
(send-trap)

z

An HWPing test will generate a Trap message no matter whether the test
successes or not. You can use the Trap switch to enable or disable the output
of trap messages.

z

You can set the number of consecutive failed HWPing tests before Trap
output. You can also set the number of consecutive failed HWPing probes
before Trap output.

HWPing Configuration

The TCP/UDP/jitter tests need the cooperation of HWPing client and HWPing server. Other types of

tests need to configure HWPing client and corresponding different servers.

You can enable both the HWPing client and HWPing server functions on the switch, that is, the switch

can serve as an HWPing client and server simultaneously.

HWPing Server Configuration

The following table describes the configuration on HWPing server, which is the same for HWPing test

types that need to configure HWPing server.

Follow these steps to perform HWPing server configurations:

To do…

Use the command…

Remarks

Enter system view

system-view

Enable the HWPing server
function

hwping-server enable

Required

Disabled by default.

Configure a UDP listening
service

hwping-server udpecho
ip-address port-num

Required for UDP and jitter tests

By default, no UDP listening service is
configured.

Configure a TCP listening
service

hwping-server tcpconnect
ip-address port-num

Required for TCP tests

By default, no TCP listening service is
configured.

Note that:

z

The HWPing server function is needed only for jitter, TCP, and UDP tests.

z

You can configure multiple TCP/UDP listening services on one HWPing server, with each listening

service corresponding to a specific destination IP address and port number.

HWPing Client Configuration

HWPing client configuration

After HWPing client is enabled, you can create multiple test groups for different tests, without the need

to enable HWPing client repeatedly for each test group.

Different types of HWPing tests are somewhat different in parameters and parameter ranges. The

following text describes the configuration on HWPing client for different test types.

1) Configuring ICMP test on HWPing client
