To do…

Use the command…

Remarks

Configure the source IP address of
request packets

source ip ip-address

Optional

By default, no source IP address is
specified.

The source IP address must be the
IP address of a local interface. The
local interface must be up;
otherwise, no probe packets can
be sent out.

Configure the operation type

operation { get | post }

Optional

By default, the operation type for
the HTTP is get, which means
obtaining data from the HTTP
server.

Configure the website that an
HTTP test visits

url url Required

Configure the HTTP version used
in HTTP tests

http-version v1.0

Optional

By default, HTTP 1.0 is used.

Configure optional parameters

Configuring Optional

Parameters for an NQA Test
Group

Optional

The TCP port must be port 80 on the HTTP server for NQA HTTP tests.

Configuring UDP Jitter Tests

Do not perform NQA UDP jitter tests on known ports, ports from 1 to 1023. Otherwise, UDP jitter tests

might fail or the corresponding services of this port might be unavailable.

Real-time services such as voice and video have high requirements on delay jitters. UDP jitter tests of

an NQA test group obtain uni/bi-directional delay jitters. The test results help you verify whether a

network can carry real-time services.

A UDP jitter test takes the following procedure:

1) The source sends packets at regular intervals to the destination port.

2) The destination affixes a time stamp to each packet that it receives, and then sends it back to the

source.

3) Upon receiving the response, the source calculates the delay jitter, which reflects network

performance. Delay refers to the amount of time it takes a packet to be transmitted from source to

destination or from destination to source. Delay jitter is the delay variation over time.
