(Optional) Associating IPv4 Static Routes with NQA

Procedure

1. Configure an ICMP NQA test instance.
   1. Run system-view

      The system view is displayed.

   2. Run nqa test-instance admin-name test-name

      An NQA test instance is created, and the view of the test instance is displayed.

   3. Run test-type icmp

      The test type is set to ICMP.

      When a static route is associated with an NQA test instance, only ICMP test instances are used to test whether there are reachable routes between the source and destination.

   4. Run destination-address ipv4 ip-address

      The destination address is set.

      In an NQA test instance, you can specify an NQA server by running the destination-address command to configure a destination address for the NQA test instance.

   5. (Optional) Run frequency interval

      The interval for automatically performing an NQA test is set.

      By default, no interval is set, that is, only one test is performed.

   6. (Optional) Run probe-count number

      The number of probes to be sent each time is set for the NQA test instance.

      By default, the number of probes is 3.

      By sending probes multiple times in an NQA test instance, you can accurately estimate network quality based on the collected statistics.

   7. Run start

      The NQA test instance is started.

      The start command can configure an NQA test instance to be started immediately, at a specified time, after a specified delay, or every day. You can perform one of the following operations as required:

      • Run start now [ end { at [ yyyy/mm/dd ] hh:mm:ss | delay { seconds second | hh:mm:ss } | lifetime { seconds second | hh:mm:ss } } ]

        The NQA test instance is started immediately.

      • Run start at [ yyyy/mm/dd ] hh:mm:ss [ end { at [ yyyy/mm/dd ] hh:mm:ss | delay { seconds second | hh:mm:ss } | lifetime { seconds second | hh:mm:ss } } ]

        The NQA test instance is started at a specified time.

      • Run start delay { seconds second | hh:mm:ss } [ end { at [ yyyy/mm/dd ] hh:mm:ss | delay { seconds second | hh:mm:ss } | lifetime { seconds second | hh:mm:ss } } ]

        The NQA test instance is started after a specified delay.

      • Run start daily hh:mm:ss to hh:mm:ss [ begin { yyyy-mm-dd | yyyy/mm/dd } ] [ end { yyyy-mm-dd | yyyy/mm/dd } ]

        The NQA test instance is started every day.

   8. Run commit

      The configuration is committed.

   9. Run quit

      Return to the system view.

2. Associate static routes with an NQA test instance.
   1. Run ip route-static ip-address { mask | mask-length } { nexthop-address | interface-type interface-number [ nexthop-address ] } [ preference preference | tag tag ] ^* track nqa admin-name test-name [ description text ]

      IPv4 static routes are associated with an NQA test instance.

      The destination address of an NQA test instance cannot be the destination address of an associated static route.

      If the static route associated with an NQA test instance is associated with another NQA test instance, the static route is disassociated from the first NQA test instance.

   2. Run commit

      The configuration is committed.
