Threshold monitoring
Threshold monitoring enables the NQA client to take a predefined action when the NQA operation performance metrics violate the specified thresholds.
Table 1 describes the relationships between performance metrics and NQA operation types.
Table 1: Performance metrics and NQA operation types
Performance metric | NQA operation types that can gather the metric |
---|---|
Probe duration | All NQA operation types except UDP jitter, UDP tracert, path jitter, and voice |
Number of probe failures | All NQA operation types except UDP jitter, UDP tracert, path jitter, and voice |
Round-trip time | ICMP jitter, UDP jitter, and voice |
Number of discarded packets | ICMP jitter, UDP jitter, and voice |
One-way jitter (source-to-destination or destination-to-source) | ICMP jitter, UDP jitter, and voice |
One-way delay (source-to-destination or destination-to-source) | ICMP jitter, UDP jitter, and voice |
Calculated Planning Impairment Factor (ICPIF) (see "Configuring the voice operation") | Voice |
Mean Opinion Scores (MOS) (see "Configuring the voice operation") | Voice |
