Specify a hexadecimal value (the range is between 1 and 2048 characters) that you want to use for the data portion of the RPM probe—for example, ABCD123.

Specify the data size of the RPM probe in bytes, a value from 0 through 65507—for example, 1024.

Configure port 50000 as the TCP port to which the RPM probes are sent.

Specify the number of probe results to be saved in the probe history—for example, 25. The range is between 0 and 255, and the default is 50.

Configure the probe count—for example, 5—and probe interval—for example, 1.

■Probe count—Total number of RPM probes to be sent for each test. The range is between 1 and 15 and the default is 1.

■Probe interval—Wait time (in seconds) between RPM probes. The range is between 1 and 255, and the default is 3.

Specify the type of probe to be sent as part of the test—tcp-ping.

NOTE: If you do not specify the probe type the default ICMP probes are sent.

Configure a value between 0 and 86400 seconds for the interval between tests—for example, 60.
