File name for FTP operation 
(filename) 

Name of a file to be transferred between HWPing client 
and FTP server 

Number of jitter test packets to be sent 
per probe (jitter-packetnum) 

z 

Jitter test is used to collect statistics about delay jitter in 
UDP packet transmission 

z 

In a jitter probe, the HWPing client sends a series of 
packets to the HWPing server at regular intervals (you 
can set the interval). Once receiving such a packet, the 
HWPing server marks it with a timestamp, and then 
sends it back to the HWPing client. Upon receiving a 
packet returned, the HWPing client computes the delay 
jitter time. The HWPing client collects delay jitter 
statistics on all the packets returned in the test. So, the 
more packets a jitter probe sends, the more accurate 
the jitter statistics is, but the longer time the jitter test 
costs.  

Interval to send jitter test packets 
(jitter-interval) 

Each jitter probe will send multiple UDP test packets at 
regular intervals (you can set the interval). The smaller the 
interval is, the faster the test is. But a too small interval 
may somewhat impact your network. 

z 

A HWPing test will generate a Trap message no matter 
whether the test successes or not. You can use the 
Trap device to enable or disable the output of trap 
messages. 

z 

You can set the number of consecutive failed HWPing 
tests before Trap output. You can also set the number 
of consecutive failed HWPing probes before Trap 
output. 

 

The TCP/UDP/jitter tests need the cooperation of HWPing client and HWPing Server, Other types of 

tests need to configure HWPing client and corresponding different servers. 

You can enable both the HWPing client and HWPing server functions on a device, that is, the device 

can serve as a HWPing client and server simultaneously.  

Complete the following tasks to configure the HWPing server: 

Enable the HWPing server 
function 

The HWPing server function is needed only for jitter, 
TCP, and UDP tests. 

Configure a listening 
service on the HWPing 
server 

You can configure multiple TCP/UDP listening 
services on one HWPing server, with each listening 
service corresponding to a specific destination IP 
address and port number.
