The S3700 supports Network Quality Analysis (NQA), which sends test packets to analyze the
network performance and quality of service. NAQ can provide various network performance
parameters, including delay variation, total delay of the HTTP application, TCP connection
delay, FTP connection delay, and file transfer rate. Using NAQ test results, you can:

l
Diagnose network problems and find the causes of network problems.
4.12 Cluster Management
The Huawei Group Management Protocol (HGMP) is a Huawei proprietary protocol used to
manage multiple S3700s or other switches through one S3700. In HGMP implementation, the
Neighbor Discovery Protocol (NDP) is used to collect information about directly connected
neighbors including the device type, software version, hardware version, connected interface,
and member ID. The Network Topology Discovery Protocol (NTDP) is used to collect topology
information.

As defined in HGMP, a management domain (namely a cluster) consists of a command switch
and multiple member switches. The S3700 can function as a command switch or a member

Command switch
The command switch functions as the proxy of the external network management station
or server to manage the member switches of a cluster. It has a public IP address and can
manage other switches.

Member switch
A member switch is managed by the command switch. Member switches are usually Layer
2 switches and do not need public IP addresses. When the S3700 functions as a member
switch, it is managed by a high-end device.

In actual application, the S3700 usually functions as a command switch to manage a large number
of member switches on a residential network in a centralized manner.

Provides methods of batch configurations and upgrade for member switches in the cluster.
HGMP saves public IP addresses by managing devices in a cluster.
4.13 Web Server
Users can manage network devices through the GUI provided by the Web Server. This reduces
requirements for junior maintenance personnel.
