6.5 Configuring the ICMP Test

This section describes how to configure an Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) test to
check the IP network connectivity.

6.5.1 Establishing the Configuration Task

Before configuring an ICMP test, familiarize yourself with the applicable environment, complete
the pre-configuration tasks, and obtain the required data. This can help you complete the
configuration task quickly and accurately.
Issue 01 (2012-03-15)
Cooperates with the NM Station:
– The NM Station can completely manage all NQA functions.
– Supports the NQA MIB.
– Supports the Disman-traceroute-MIB.
– Supports the Disman-NSLookUp-MIB.
– Supports the Disman-ping-MIB.
Jitter tests support the continuous sending of 3000 packets and support voice traffic
simulation.
Supports statistics collection at the millisecond and microsecond level.
Supports hot backup:
This function implements the synchronization of the configurations of NQA tests between
the master control board and the slave board. Therefore, after the master/slave switchover,
NQA tests can be performed normally.
Supports test task scheduling:
Implements the scheduling of test tasks to decrease the concurrent tasks on the device.
Supports the configuration of different start time and end time for a single test:
– Supports three modes of starting tests: immediate, timely, and delayed.
– Supports several modes of ending tests: automatic, immediate, timely, delayed, and
ending the test when the lifetime of the test expires.
Supports auto distributing the start time and the test interval when several tests are
performed at a time.
Supports the auto-delay function, with which the system resources can be effectively
utilized so that tests can be completed within a specified period.
Supports the collection of the uni-directional delay statistics and bi-directional delay
statistics. In addition, you can set a threshold and enable collecting statistics about the
packets in the test results that exceed the threshold.
Supports the collection of statistics on packet loss in one direction.
Supports the flexible alarm mechanism. That is, the upper and lower thresholds are set to
monitor the feature of the tested objects according to their OIDs. When the test result
exceeds the threshold, alarms are triggered based on the preset events.
