Scheduling the NQA operation on the NQA client
The NQA operation works between the specified start time and the end time (the start time plus
operation duration). If the specified start time is ahead of the system time, the operation starts
immediately. If both the specified start and end time are ahead of the system time, the operation
does not start. To display the current system time, use the
display clock
command.
When you schedule an NQA operation, follow these restrictions and guidelines:
•
You cannot enter the operation type view or the operation view of a scheduled NQA operation.
•
A system time adjustment does not affect started or completed NQA operations. It affects only
the NQA operations that have not started.
To schedule the NQA operation on the NQA client:

Configuring NQA templates on the NQA client
An NQA template is a set of operation parameters, such as the destination address, the destination
port number, and the destination server URL. You can use an NQA template in a feature to provide
statistics. You can create multiple templates on a device, and each template must be uniquely
named.
NQA template supports the ICMP, DNS, TCP, UDP, HTTP, and FTP operation types.
Configuring the ICMP template
A feature that uses the ICMP template performs the ICMP operation to measure the reachability of a
destination device. The ICMP template is supported in both IPv4 and IPv6 networks.
To configure the ICMP template:
