NQA/4/TEST_FAILED

Message

NQA/4/TEST_FAILED: NQA entry test failed. (OwnerIndex=[OwnerIndex], TestName=[TestName], TargetAddressType=[TargetAddressType], TargetAddress=[TargetAddress], OperStatus=[OperStatus], Index=[Index], HopIndex=[HopIndex], AddressType=[AddressType], Address=[Address], CompletionTimeMin=[CompletionTimeMin], CompletionTimeMax=[CompletionTimeMax], SumCompletionTime=[SumCompletionTime], ProbeResponses=[ProbeResponses], SentProbes=[SentProbes], SumCompletionTime2Low=[SumCompletionTime2Low], SumCompletionTime2High=[SumCompletionTime2High], LastGoodProbe=[LastGoodProbe], LastGoodPath=[LastGoodPath])

Description

The number of continuous NQA test failures reached the threshold. The default threshold is 1, indicating that each time an NQA test fails, the log message is displayed. The test-failtimes command could modify the threshold.

Parameters

Parameter Name	Parameter Meaning
OwnerIndex	Indicates the administrator of an NQA test instance.
TestName	Indicates the name of an NQA test instance.
TargetAddressType	Indicates the type of the destination address.
TargetAddress	Indicates the destination address.
OperStatus	Indicates the status of an NQA test instance.
Index	Indicates the index of the result table.
HopIndex	Indicates the hop index.
AddressType	Indicates the type of the source address.
Address	Indicates the source address.
CompletionTimeMin	Indicates the minimum RTT.
CompletionTimeMax	Indicates the maximum RTT.
SumCompletionTime	Indicates the RTT sum.
ProbeResponses	Indicates the total number of received packets.
SentProbes	Indicates the total number of sent packets.
SumCompletionTime2Low	Indicates the lower 32 bits of the RTT square sum.
SumCompletionTime2High	Indicates the higher 32 bits of the RTT square sum.
LastGoodProbe	Indicates the last time when the probe packet is responded.
LastGoodPath	Indicates the last time when the complete path is obtained.

Possible Causes

Cause 1: The destination address does not exist and the route is unreachable.
Cause 2: The destination address exists, but the route is unreachable.
Cause 3: The network delay is great, causing the RTT of the packet to be longer than the set timeout period.

Procedure

1. Run the display this command in the NQA test view to check whether the destination address is correctly configured.

If the parameters are correctly configured, go to Step 2.
If the destination address is incorrect, run the destination-address command in the NQA test view to change the destination address.Restart the test instance to check whether the test is successful.
If yes, go to Step 5.
If not, go to step 2.

2. Run the ping command in the NQA test instance view to check whether the route is reachable.

If the route is reachable, go to Step 3.
If the route is unreachable, run the display ip routing-table command to check the routing table and rectify the route fault.Restart the test instance to check whether the test is successful.
If yes, go to Step 5.
If not, go to Step 3.

3. Run the timeout command in the NQA test instance view to change the timeout period based on network conditions. You are advised to set the timeout period to the default value, 3 seconds. The value ranges from 1 to 60 seconds. (You can run the display this command in the NQA test instance view to view the current timeout period.)Restart the test instance to check whether the test is successful.

If yes, go to Step 5.
If not, go to Step 4.

4. Collect log and configuration information, and contact technical support personnel.

5. End
