For configuration with LANconfig, the SLA monitor is located under SLA monitoring pane.
on theClick the button ICMP tests, add new queries and set guideline values for the connection tests.
- Test active
- With this check box enabled, the device uses the specified settings for the connectivity test.
- Name
- Name of connection
- IP version
- Specifies the use of IPv4 or IPv6.Note: The setting "Auto" is selected by default.
- Destination
- Specifies the destination for testing (ICMP/PING destination).
- Routing tag
- Specify a routing tag if a particular route is to be used.
- Source address (optional)
- You can optionally configure a source address if you want to use a specific network as the source interface.
- Test Interval:
- Specifies the time interval in which the device sends ICMP packets (default: 30 seconds).
- Start offset
- Set a delay time before ICMP packets are sent.
- Count per test
- Specifies how many ICMP packets are sent per test (default: 5).
- Packet delay
- Set a delay before packets are sent.
- Packet size
- Sets the packet size for the ICMP message.
- DSCP value
- Specifies the DSCP value of the ICMP message. DSCP (Differentiated Services Code Point) is used for QoS (Quality of Service). Possible values: BE/CS0, CS1, CS2, CS3, CS4, CS5, CS6, CS7, AF11, AF12, AF13, AF21, AF22, AF23, AF31, AF32, AF33, AF41, AF42, AF43, EF
Result evaluation
In this section, you specify the threshold limits for packet handling.
- RTT max. warning
- Specify a maximum packet transmission time (Round Trip Time). A warning message is generated if an ICMP packet takes longer than the transmission time specified here.
- RTT max. critical
- An error message is generated if an ICMP packet takes longer than the transmission time specified here.
- RTT avg. warning
- Specify an average packet transmission time here. A warning message is generated if the average number of ICMP packets takes longer than the transmission time specified here.
- RTT avg. critical
- Specify an average packet transmission time here. An error message is generated if the average number of ICMP packets takes longer than the transmission time specified here.
- Packet loss warning
- A warning message is generated if the percentage of lost packets reaches the value specified here.
- Packet loss critical
- An error message is generated if the percentage of lost packets reaches the value specified here.
