NOTE:
A DNS test simulates the domain name resolution. It does not save the mapping between the domain name
and the IP address.
Configuring FTP tests
FTP tests of an NQA test group are used to test the connection between the NQA client and an FTP server
and the time required for the FTP client to transfer a file to or download a file from the FTP server.
Configuration prerequisites
Before you start FTP tests, configure the FTP server. For example, configure a username and password that
are used to log in to the FTP server. For more information about FTP server configuration, see
