Starting or Stopping an On-Demand Diagnostic Test

Starting or Stopping an On-Demand Diagnostic Test
You can start or stop an on-demand diagnostic test. You can optionally modify the number of iterations to

We recommend that you only manually start a disruptive diagnostic test during a scheduled network
maintenance time.
Before You Begin
Make sure that you are in the correct VDC. To change the VDC, use the switchto vdc command.
