Configuring a PWE3 Ping Test Instance on a Single-Hop PW

Procedure

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 test instance view is displayed.

3. Run test-type pwe3ping

   The test type is set to PWE3 Ping.

4. (Optional) Run vc-type ldp

   The method of setting up a PW is configured.

5. (Optional) Run local-pw-type local-pw-type

   The type of the local PW is configured. By default, the type is Ethernet.

6. Run lsp-version { rfc4379 | draft6 }

   A protocol is configured for the LSP test instance.

7. (Optional) Run label-type { control-word | { label-alert | normal } [ no-control-word ] }

   The type of the PW label is configured.

   

   If the PW label type is set to control-word, the control word feature must be enabled for the PW.

8. Run local-pw-id local-pw-id

   The ID of the local end of the PW is configured.

9. (Optional) Run peer-address peer-address

   A peer IP address is configured.

   

   For an NQA PWE3 ping or trace test instance, if the primary and secondary VCs are configured with the same VC ID, the peer-address command must be configured to specify a peer IP address. This configuration determines a unique PW for the NQA test.

10. (Optional) Run the following commands to configure other parameters for the PWE3 ping test:

    • To configure the response mode of the Echo packet, run the lsp-replymode { no-reply | udp } command.

    • To configure the LSP EXP value, run the lsp-exp exp command.
