nqa-server tcpconnect

Function

The nqa-server tcpconnect command specifies a TCP server for an NQA test instance.

The undo nqa-server tcpconnect command deletes a TCP server for an NQA test instance.

By default, no TCP server is configured for an NQA test.

Format

nqa-server tcpconnect ip-address port-number

nqa-server tcpconnect vpn-instance vpn-instance-name ip-address port-number

undo nqa-server tcpconnect ip-address port-number

undo nqa-server tcpconnect vpn-instance vpn-instance-name ip-address port-number

Parameters

Parameter	Description	Value
ip-address	Specifies the IP address monitored by the TCP server.	It is in dotted decimal notation.
port-number	Specifies the number of the port monitored by the TCP server.	The value is integer ranging from 1 to 65535. The well-known port number is not recommended.
vpn-instance vpn-instance-name	Specifies a VPN instance to which the TCP server belongs.	The value is a string of 1 to 31 case-sensitive characters, spaces not supported. In addition, the VPN instance name must not be _public_. When double quotation marks are used around the string, spaces are allowed in the string.

Parameter

Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

Both the NQA client and server must be configured before an NQA TCP test instance is started. Otherwise, the test instance fails to be started.

Configurations about the server that are performed on the client are as follows:

Run the destination-port command on the client to configure the destination port number for the NQA test instance, that is, the port number enabled on the server. The client can access the server through the port specified using port-number.
Run the destination-address command on the client to configure the destination address for the NQA test instance. The server is enabled to monitor the IP address specified using ip-address.
If the client and server are connected using a VPN, run the vpn-instance command to specify a VPN instance.

Precautions

You must enable the TCP server using this command before performing the TCP test.

Example

# Configure a TCP server with IP address 10.10.10.1, VPN instance vsi and TCP port number 2000.

<HUAWEI> system-view
[~HUAWEI] ip vpn-instance vsi
[*HUAWEI-vpn-instance-vsi] quit
[*HUAWEI] nqa-server tcpconnect vpn-instance vsi 10.10.10.1 2000
