NQA configuration examples

ICMP echo test configuration example

Network requirements

Use the NQA ICMP function to test whether the NQA client (Firewall) can send packets to the specified

destination (Device) and test the roundtrip time of packets.

Configuration procedure

# Create an ICMP echo test group and configure related test parameters.

<Firewall> system-view

[Firewall] nqa entry admin test

[Firewall-nqa-admin-test] type icmp-echo

[Firewall-nqa-admin-test-icmp-echo] destination ip 10.2.2.2

# Configure optional parameters.

[Firewall-nqa-admin-test-icmp-echo] probe count 10

[Firewall-nqa-admin-test-icmp-echo] probe timeout 500

[Firewall-nqa-admin-test-icmp-echo] frequency 5000

# Enable the saving of history records.

[Firewall-nqa-admin-test-icmp-echo] history-record enable

[Firewall-nqa-admin-test-icmp-echo] history-record number 10

[Firewall-nqa-admin-test-icmp-echo] quit

# Enable ICMP echo test.

[Firewall] nqa schedule admin test start-time now lifetime forever

# Disable ICMP echo test after the test begins for a period of time.

[Firewall] undo nqa schedule admin test

# Display results of the last ICMP echo test.

[Firewall] display nqa result admin test
