Test Types Supported by Remote-ping
Table 1-1 Test types supported by remote-ping
Supported test types Description
ICMP test
DHCP test
FTP test
HTTP test
DNS test
SNMP test
For these types of tests, you need to configure the remote-ping
client and corresponding servers.
Jitter test
Tcppublic test
TCP test
Tcpprivate test
Udppublic test
UDP test
Udpprivate test
z These types of tests need the cooperation of the remote-ping
client and remote-ping server.
z Do not perform a TCP, UDP or jitter test on a well-known port
(ports with a number ranging from 1 to 1023). Otherwise,
your remote-ping test may fail or the service corresponding to
the well-known port may become unavailable.
Remote-ping Test Parameters
You need to configure corresponding test parameters for each type of remote-ping test. Remote-ping
test parameters can be configured on remote-ping client only. For the configurations on the remote-ping
client, refer to section
Remote-ping Client Configuration.
Table 1-2 Remote-ping test parameters
Test parameter Description
Destination address
(destination-ip)
For a TCP/UDP/jitter test, you must specify a destination IP address, and
the destination address must be the IP address of a TCP/UDP/UDP
listening service configured on the remote-ping server.
Destination port
(destination-port)
For a tcpprivate/udpprivate/jitter test, you must specify a destination port
number, and the destination port number must be the port number of a
TCP or UDP listening service configured on the remote-ping server.
Source interface
(source-interface)
z For a DHCP test, you must specify a source interface, which will be
used by the remote-ping client to send DHCP requests. If no source
interface is specified for the DHCP test, the test will not succeed.
z After a source interface is specified, the remote-ping client uses this
source interface to send DHCP requests during the DHCP test.
z The IP address of the specified source interface will be used as the
source IP address of DHCP requests.
Source address
(source-ip)
For remote-ping tests other than DHCP tests, you can specify a source
IP address for test packets, which will be used by the server as the
destination address of response packets.
Source port
(source-port)
For remote-ping tests other than ICMP, DHCP and DNS, you can specify
a source port number for test packets, which will be used by the server
as the destination port number of response packets.
