destination-address (LSP Trace test instance)

Function

The destination-address command configures a destination IP address for an NQA test instance of LSP Trace test type.

The undo destination-address command deletes a destination IP address.

By default, the destination address and mask of an NQA test is not configured.

Format

destination-address ipv4 destAddress [ { lsp-masklen maskLen } | { lsp-loopback loopbackAddress } ] ^*

undo destination-address

Parameters

Parameter	Description	Value
lsp-masklen maskLen	Specifies the mask length of an LSP IPv4 address prefix.	The value is an integer ranging from 0 to 32.
lsp-loopback loopbackAddress	Specifies an IP address on the network segment 127.0.0./8 in the LSP ping packet header.	The address is in dotted decimal notation.
ipv4 destAddress	Specifies the destination IPv4 address for an NQA test instance.	The address is in dotted decimal notation.

Parameter

Description

Value

lsp-masklen maskLen

Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

NQA monitors service features by creating test instances. In NQA, two test ends are called an NQA client and an NQA server. An NQA test is initiated by the NQA client. After test instances are configured on the client, NQA places different types of test instances into various test queues. After the test starts, a response packet is returned. You can then check the operating status about protocols by analyzing the received response packet.

For a test instance, the server is specified using the destination IP address configured using the destination-address command.

Configuration Impact

If a destination IP address has been configured for a test instance, running the destination-address command overrides the previous configuration.

Precautions

If parameters need to be changed during the running of the test instance, the system prompts you whether to terminate the test instance. Press "Y" or "N" as required.

If you press "Y", the test instance is terminated and parameters changed. The settings take effect after being committed. To restart the test instance, run the start command.
If you press "N", the test instance keeps running, and the parameters fail to be modified.

Example

# Assign a destination IPv4 address to the test instance named user test.
