Test Commands
In the event that an issue was discovered with an installed application or line card, depending on the severity, it may be necessary to take corrective action.
The system provides several redundancy and fail-over mechanisms to address issues with application and line cards in order to minimize system downtime and data loss. These mechanisms are described in the sections that follow.
Using the eGTPC Test Echo Command
This command tests the eGTP service's ability to exchange eGTPC packets with the specified peer which can be useful for troubleshooting and/or monitoring.
The test is performed by the system sending eGTP-C echo request messages to the specified peer(s) and waiting for a response.
 Important |
This command must be executed from within the context in which at least one eGTP service is configured. |
