Tuning RPM Probes
After configuring an RPM probe, you can set parameters to control probe functions, such as the interval between probes, the total number of concurrent probes that a system can handle, and the source address used for each probe packet. See Example: Configuring Basic RPM Probes.
The following example requires you to navigate various levels in the configuration hierarchy. For instructions on how to do that, see Using the CLI Editor in Configuration Mode.
To tune RPM probes:
- Set the maximum number of concurrent probes allowed on
the system to 10.[edit services rpm]user@host# set probe-limit 10
- Access the ICMP probe of customer A.[edit]user@host# edit services rpm probe customerA test icmp-test
- Set the time between probe transmissions to 15 seconds. [edit services rpm probe customerA test icmp-test]user@host# set probe-interval 15
- Set the number of probes within a test to 10. [edit services rpm probe customerA test icmp-test]user@host# set probe-count 10
- Set the source address for each probe packet to 192.168.2.9. If you do not explicitly configure a source address, the address
on the outgoing interface through which the probe is sent is used
as the source address. [edit services rpm probe customerA test icmp-test]user@host# set source-address 192.168.2.9
- If you are done configuring the device, enter commit from configuration mode.
