Table 1-1 Test types supported by HWPing
Supported test types Description
ICMP test
DHCP test
FTP test
HTTP test
DNS test
SNMP test
For these types of tests, you need to configure HWPing client
and corresponding servers.
Jitter test
Tcppublic test
TCP test
Tcpprivate test
Udppublic test
UDP test
Udpprivate test
z These types of tests need the cooperation of HWPing client
and HWPing Server.
z Do not perform TCP or UDP test on port 1 to 1023
(well-known ports). Otherwise your HWPing test may fail or
cause the service corresponding to the well-known port (1 to
1023) being unavailable.
HWPing Test Parameters
You need to configure corresponding test parameters for each type of HWPing test. HWPing test
parameters can be configured on HWPing client only. For the configurations on HWPing client, refer to
section.
