Hwping Server Configuration; Hwping Client Configuration - H3C S5100-SI Operation Manual

Test parameter
Trap
HWPing Configuration
The TCP/UDP/jitter tests need the cooperation of HWPing client and HWPing server. Other types of
tests need to configure HWPing client and corresponding different servers.
You can enable both the HWPing client and HWPing server functions on an H3C S5100SI/EI Ethernet
switch, that is, the switch can serve as a HWPing client and server simultaneously.

HWPing Server Configuration

The following table describes the configuration on HWPing server, which is the same for HWPing test
types that need to configure HWPing server.
Follow these steps to perform HWPing server configurations:
To do...
Enter system view
Enable the HWPing
server function
Configure a UDP
listening service
Configure a TCP
listening service
Note that:
The HWPing server function is needed only for jitter, TCP, and UDP tests.
You can configure multiple TCP/UDP listening services on one HWPing server, with each listening
service corresponding to a specific destination IP address and port number.

HWPing Client Configuration

HWPing client configuration
After HWPing client is enabled, you can create multiple test groups for different tests, without the need
to enable HWPing client repeatedly for each test group.
Different types of HWPing tests are somewhat different in parameters and parameter ranges. The
following text describes the configuration on HWPing client for different test types.
A HWPing test will generate a Trap message no matter whether the
test successes or not. You can use the Trap switch to enable or
disable the output of trap messages.
You can set the number of consecutive failed HWPing tests before
Trap output. You can also set the number of consecutive failed
HWPing probes before Trap output.
Use the command...
