Configuring A Dns Operation; Configuring An Ftp Operation - HP MSR Series Configuration Manual

Step
4. Specify an interface to
perform the DHCP operation.

Configuring a DNS operation

A DNS operation measures the time the NQA client uses to translate a domain name into an IP address
through a DNS server.
A DNS operation simulates domain name resolution and does not save the obtained DNS entry.
To configure a DNS operation:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Create an NQA operation
and enter NQA operation
view.
3. Specify the DNS type and
enter its view.
4. Specify the IP address of the
DNS server as the
destination address of DNS
packets.
5. Configure the domain name
that needs to be translated.

Configuring an FTP operation

An FTP operation measures the time the NQA client uses to transfer a file to or download a file from an
FTP server.
Follow these guidelines when you configure an FTP operation:
Before you perform an FTP operation, obtain the username and password for logging in to the FTP
•
server.
• When you execute the put command, the NQA client creates a file (not a real one) named
file-name of fixed size on the FTP server. When you execute the get command, the client does not
save the file obtained from the FTP server.
If you get a file that does not exist on the FTP server, the FTP operation fails.
•
• Only use the get command to download a small file. A big file might result in transfer failure
because of timeout, or might affect other services for occupying much network bandwidth.
To configure an FTP operation:
