What is IP SLA command?

IP SLA (Internet protocol service level agreement) is a feature of the Cisco Internetwork Operating System (Cisco IOS) that allows an IT professional to collect information about network performance in real time.

How do I check my IP SLA?

To display the status of IP Service Level Agreements (SLAs) auto discovery and the configuration of auto IP SLAs endpoint lists configured to use auto discovery, use the show ip sla auto discovery command in user EXEC or privileged EXEC mode.

How do I enable IP SLA responder?

Open a CLI session on the destination router and follow the below steps.

  1. To enable privileged EXEC mode: Router › enable.
  2. To enable the global configuration mode: Router#configure terminal.
  3. To enable the IP SLA responder. Router(config)#ip sla responder. [or] Router(config)#ip sla monitor responder.

How do I run IP SLA?

Defining and Running an IP SLA Test Operation

  1. Step 1: Enable the IP SLA Responder on the Target Switch. Switch(config)# ip sla responder.
  2. Step 2: Define a New IP SLA Operation on the Source Switch.
  3. Step 3: Select the Type of Test Operation to Perform.
  4. Step 4: Schedule the Test Operation.

Why is IP SLA used?

IP SLA was previously known as Service Assurance Agent (SAA) or Response Time Reporter (RTR). IP SLA is used to track network performance like latency, ping response, and jitter, it also helps us to provide service quality.

What is IP SLA timeout?

Timeout sets the amount of time (in milliseconds) for which the Cisco IOS IP SLAs operation waits for a response from its request packet. Threshold sets the rising threshold that generates a reaction event and stores history information for the Cisco IOS IP SLAs operation.

How do I clear IP SLA?

IP SLA- How to Restart or Clear Counters of IP SLA Statistics

  1. R1(config)#ip sla monitor restart 1 >>>>> where “1” is Entry number.
  2. R1(config)#ip sla restart 1 >>>>> where “1” is Entry number.
  3. Round trip time (RTT) Index 1Latest RTT: 2 milliseconds.
  4. Round trip time (RTT) Index 1Latest RTT: 2 milliseconds.

What is IP SLA ICMP echo?

The Cisco IOS IP SLAs Internet Control Message Protocol. (ICMP) echo operation allows you to measure end-to-end. network response time between a Cisco device and other. devices using IP.

What can be configured as an IP SLA responder?

A destination router running Cisco IOS Software is configured as a Cisco IOS IP SLAs Responder, which processes measurement packets and provides detailed timestamp information. The responder can send information about the destination router’s processing delay back to the source Cisco router.

How do I change my IP SLA?

Configuring a Basic ICMP Echo Operation on the Source Device

  1. enable.
  2. configure terminal.
  3. ip sla operation-number.
  4. icmp-echo {destination-ip-address | destination-hostname} [source-ip {ip-address | hostname} | source-interface interface-name]
  5. frequency seconds.
  6. end.

What is IP SLA enable reaction alerts?

To enable Cisco IP Service Level Agreements (SLAs) notifications to be sent to all registered applications, use the ip sla enable reaction-alerts command in global configuration mode. To disable IP SLAs notifications, use the no form of this command.

How to configure a Cisco IP SLA responder?

Now, let’s configure Cisco IP SLA Responder. To do this we will use the below command: ip sla responder {tcp-connect | udp-echo} ipaddress ip-address port port-number . According to analyzed traffic, we will select tcp-connect or udp-connect, we will give the ip address and port of the destination.

Which is an example of an IP SLA operation?

For example, the IP SLA Path Echo operation will use ICMP ping packets. There are a few components that go together and need to be configured for IP SLA to function. First you need to decide what type of IP SLA operation you want to configure, whether it be ICMP jitter, HTTP GET request, DNS request, VoIP, etc.

What’s the default repeat frequency for IP SLA?

Then, we will configure IPSLA Operation repeat frequency as 10 seconds. The default one is 60 seconds. We can give 1 to 604800 seconds. Then we will exist this configuration level. In the global configuration mode, we will configure the IP SLA Schedule with the below command.

How does IP SLA work for UDP jitter?

In order to understand a little how the IP SLA function works, let’s take a look at how IP SLA is configured for UDP jitter to monitor the link between two Cisco routers, with one configured as an IP SLA Responder.
