Example for Configuring an HTTP Test Instance
Networking Requirements
In Figure 6-30, SwitchA is connected to the HTTP server over a WAN to test the speed of SwitchA accessing the HTTP server.
Configuration Roadmap
The configuration roadmap is as follows:
Configure SwitchA as an NQA client.
Create and start an HTTP test instance on the SwitchA to check whether SwitchA can set up a connection with the HTTP server and to check the duration for transferring files between SwitchA and the HTTP server.
Procedure
- Configure IP addresses for the interfaces on the SwitchA and ensure reachable routes between SwitchA and the HTTP server.
<HUAWEI> system-view
[HUAWEI] sysname SwitchA
[SwitchA] vlan 100
[SwitchA-vlan100] quit
[SwitchA] interface gigabitethernet 1/0/1
[SwitchA-GigabitEthernet1/0/1] port link-type hybrid
[SwitchA-GigabitEthernet1/0/1] port hybrid pvid vlan 100
[SwitchA-GigabitEthernet1/0/1] port hybrid untagged vlan 100
[SwitchA-GigabitEthernet1/0/1] quit
[SwitchA] interface vlanif 100
[SwitchA-Vlanif100] ip address 10.1.1.1 24
[SwitchA-Vlanif100] quit
[SwitchA] ospf
[SwitchA-ospf-1] area 0
[SwitchA-ospf-1-area-0.0.0.0] network 10.1.1.0 0.0.0.255
[SwitchA-ospf-1-area-0.0.0.0] quit
[SwitchA-ospf-1] quit
- Enable the NQA client and create an NQA HTTP test instance.
[SwitchA] nqa test-instance admin http
[SwitchA-nqa-admin-http] test-type http
[SwitchA-nqa-admin-http] destination-address ipv4 10.2.1.1
[SwitchA-nqa-admin-http] http-operation get
[SwitchA-nqa-admin-http] http-url http://www.***.com
The URL used to test HTTP must be a valid URL that can be displayed on the browser. In this example, the URL is http://www.***.com.
- Start the test instance.
[SwitchA-nqa-admin-http] start now
- Check the configuration.
[SwitchA-nqa-admin-http] display nqa results test-instance admin http NQA entry(admin, http) :testflag is inactive ,testtype is http 1 .
