Test Commands 
In the event that an issue was discovered with an installed application or line card, depending on the severity, it may be 
necessary to take corrective action. 
The system provides several redundancy and fail-over mechanisms to address issues with application and line cards in 
order to minimize system downtime and data loss. These mechanisms are described in the sections that follow. 
Using the GTPU Test Echo Command 
This command tests the HeNB-GW’s ability to exchange GPRS Tunneling Protocol user plane (GTP-U) packets with 
the specified peer nodes which can be useful in troubleshooting and/or monitoring. 
The test is performed by the system sending GTP-U echo request messages to the specified node(s) and waiting for a 
response. 
Important:
  This command must be executed from within the context in which at least one HeNB-GW 
service is configured. 
The command has the following syntax: 
gtpu test echo gtpu-service gtpu_svc_name { all | peer-address ip_addr } gtpu-
version { 0 | 1 }
 
Keyword/Variable
 
Description
 
gtpu-service
 
gtpu_svc_name
 
Specifies the GTP-U service configured on the system and associated with the HeNB-GW Network 
service.
 
peer-address
 
ip_addr
 
Specifies the IP address of the HeNB node.
 
NOTE: The IP address of the system’s interface must be bound to a configured HeNB-GW service 
prior to executing this command. 
all
 
Specifies that GTP-U echo requests will be sent to all Nodes that currently have sessions with the 
HeNB-GW service.
 
gtpu-version { 0 | 1 
}
 
Specifies the the GTPU version of peer node. This is optional; if provided and the peer version is not 
known, the user supplied version is used while sending echo.
 
 
Using the IPsec Tunnel Test Command 
This command tests the system’s ability to communicate through an IPsec Tunnel. This functionality is useful for 
troubleshooting and/or monitoring. 
The command has the following syntax: 
test ipsec tunnel ip-pool ip_pool_name destination-ip des_ip_address source-ip 
src_ip_address
