NQA configuration examples
ICMP echo operation configuration example
Network requirements
As shown in Figure 41, configure and schedule an ICMP echo operation from the NQA client Device A
to Device B through Device C to test the round-trip time.
Figure 41 Network diagram
Configuration procedure
# Assign each interface an IP address. (Details not shown.)
# Configure static routes or a routing protocol to make sure the devices can reach each other. (Details not
shown.)
# Create an ICMP echo operation and specify 10.2.2.2 as the destination IP address.
<DeviceA> system-view
[DeviceA] nqa entry admin test1
[DeviceA-nqa-admin-test1] type icmp-echo
[DeviceA-nqa-admin-test1-icmp-echo] destination ip 10.2.2.2
# Configure 10.1.1.2 as the next hop. The ICMP echo requests are sent through Device C to Device B.
[DeviceA-nqa-admin-test1-icmp-echo] next-hop 10.1.1.2
# Configure the ICMP echo operation to perform 10 probes, specify the probe timeout time as 500
milliseconds, and configure the operation to repeat at an interval of 5000 milliseconds.
[DeviceA-nqa-admin-test1-icmp-echo] probe count 10
[DeviceA-nqa-admin-test1-icmp-echo] probe timeout 500
[DeviceA-nqa-admin-test1-icmp-echo] frequency 5000
