NetCrunch supports Cisco IP SLA technology.

Sensors

IP SLA Single Operation

Node SettingsMonitoringAdd IP SLA OperationIP SLA Single Operation

This sensor allows monitoring of the status of IP SLA operations on the Cisco devices. Select the operation previously defined on a Cisco device when you add the sensor. Operations are grouped by protocol type.

Program can alert on the following conditions:
  • Operation cannot be completed successfully
  • Operation is not active or does not exist on the router

Additionally, you can set performance triggers (thresholds) on the following metrics:

  • % Availability
  • Completion Status - status code of the operation.
  • RTT - Operation completion time (ms).
IP SLA Multi-Operation

Node SettingsMonitoringAdd IP SLA OperationIP SLA Multi-Operation

The sensor can monitor all operations of a given type, or it can select operations by their parameters:

  • Operation id (specify list or range)
  • Target IP address
  • Admin tag
  • Operation group

Unlike a Single IP SLA Operation sensor, the operation configuration cannot be modified.

Default Metrics
  • % Availability
  • Operation RTT
Sensor alerts
  • Any of the monitored operations have an invalid state.

Status

In the node status window, NetCrunch shows the status of all IP SLA operations defined on the Cisco device.
