Click 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.
