About the Test Agents Page
To access this page, click Inventory > Active Assurance > Test Agents.
Test Agents evaluate the quality of your network by collecting metric data for preconfigured key performance indicators (KPIs). Test Agents deployed in different locations in your network send metric data to Paragon Automation over management interfaces. For more information on Test Agents, see Test Agents Overview.
You (superusers and network administrators) can view the following widgets on the Test Agents page:
Total—The total number of Test Agents in the network.
In Use—The number of Test Agents that are actively running a Test or a Monitor.
Tasks You Can Perform
You can perform the following tasks on the Test Agents GUI:
View details of a Test Agents—You can view the list of all the Test Agents in your network and you can also view details of a selected Test Agent. To view the details of a Test Agent, select a Test Agent and click More > Details. You can also hover over the Test-Agent-Name and click the Detailed View icon. The Test Agent Details pane appears on the right side of the page displaying the Test Agent details.
On the Test Agent Details pane, you can:
Copy API Request URL—You can copy the API Request URL so that you can reuse the copied API request URL to fetch the Test Agent details.
View information such as, name, description, tags, ID, types, online, creation, and execution status of the Test Agents.
Edit the name, description, and tags of the Test Agent.
Click the Close (x) icon to close the pane.
View details of a selected Test Agent—To view the details of a selected Test Agent, click a Test-Agent-Name. The Test Agent Details page displays the following tabs:
Overview—Displays system information and location details of the Test Agent.
Interfaces—Displays all the interfaces used by the Test Agent. For more information, see About the Test Agent Details Page.
You can also perform the following tasks on this page:
Sort, resize, or re-arrange columns in a table (grid).
Show or hide columns in the table or reset page preferences, using the vertical ellipsis menu.
Filter the data displayed in the table—Click the filter icon (funnel) and select whether you want to show or hide advanced filters. You can then add or remove filter criteria, save criteria as a filter, apply or clear filters, and so on. The filtered results are displayed on the same page.
For more information, see GUI Overview.
Fields | Description |
---|---|
ID | The Universal Unique Identifier (UUID) of the Test Agent. |
Name | The name of the Test Agent that you have specified at the time of installing a Test Agent. Based on the icon of the Test Agent, you can identify the type of Test Agent.
|
Description | The description of the Test Agent that you have specified at the time of configuring the Test Agent. You can also edit the description from the Test-Agent Details page. |
Online | The connection status of the Test Agent. For more information, see Table 2. |
Device Online | The connection status of the device on which the Test Agent is installed. For more information, see Table 2. |
In Use | In use indicates whether the Test Agent is actively collecting traffic measurements or not. True—Test Agent is actively collecting traffic measurements. False—Test Agent is not collecting traffic measurements. |
IPv4 Address | The IPv4 address of the interface of the device from which Paragon Automation initiates the test. |
IPv6 Address | The IPv6 address of the interface of the device from which Paragon Automation initiates the test. |
External IP (Address) | The public IP address of the Test Agent. Based on the Test Agent deployment, this IP address is a static or dynamic (using DHCP) assignment. |
Software version | The software version of the Test Agent. |
Device ID | The UUID of the device on which the Test Agent is deployed. |
Device Model | The model of the device on which the Test Agent is deployed. |
Device Name | The name of the device on which the Test Agent is deployed. |
Device State | The installation status of Test Agent on a device. For example, Configuring, Installing, Installed, Deconfiguring, Uninstalling, Uninstalled, Failed, or Error. |
Device Requested State | The installation status that you have requested during the process of installing a Test Agent on a device. For example, if you have requested to install a Test Agent on a device, the Device State can be anything from Configuring to Error, but the Device Requested State will be Installed. |
Device Version | The OS version of the device on which the Test Agent is deployed. For example, 23.2R1.15-EVO. |
Tags | The tags configured for the Test Agent in the key:value format. By default, only two tags are displayed in the column. To view more than two tags, click + Number more. A tag is a key-value pair in which the key signifies a category for which you configure a value. The value is an identifier for the category. Examples of key-value pairs are device and device name (edgedevice:acx7000), site and site name (site:bangalore). You can configure tags from the Test-Agent Details page. |
