Chapter 45 Configuring Cisco IOS IP SLAs Operations
How to Configure Cisco IOS IP SLAs Operations
Analyzing IP Service Levels by Using the ICMP Echo Operation
Note This operation does not require the IP SLAs responder to be enabled.
Step 6 ip sla schedule operation-number
[life {forever | seconds}]
[start-time {hh:mm [:ss] [month
day | day month] | pending | now |
after hh:mm:ss] [ageout seconds]
[recurring]
Configures the scheduling parameters for an individual IP SLAs operation.
operation-number—Enters the RTR entry number.
(Optional) life—Sets the operation to run indefinitely (forever) or for a
specific number of seconds. The range is from 0 to 2147483647. The
default is 3600 seconds (1 hour).
(Optional) start-time—Enters the time for the operation to begin
collecting information:
To start at a specific time, enter the hour, minute, second (in 24-hour
notation), and day of the month. If no month is entered, the default is
the current month.
Enter pending to select no information collection until a start time is
selected.
Enter now to start the operation immediately.
Enter after hh:mm:ss to show that the operation should start after the
entered time has elapsed.
(Optional) ageout seconds—Enters the number of seconds to keep the
operation in memory when it is not actively collecting information. The
range is 0 to 2073600 seconds, the default is 0 seconds (never ages out) .
(Optional) recurring—Sets the operation to automatically run every day.
Step 7 end Returns to privileged EXEC mode.
Command Purpose
Step 1 configure terminal Enters global configuration mode.
Step 2 ip sla operation-number Creates an IP SLAs operation and enters IP SLAs configuration mode.
Step 3 icmp-echo {destination-ip-address
| destination-hostname} [source-ip
{ip-address | hostname} |
source-interface interface-id]
Configures the IP SLAs operation as an ICMP Echo operation and enters ICMP
echo configuration mode.
destination-ip-address | destination-hostname—Specifies the destination
IP address or hostname.
(Optional) source-ip {ip-address | hostname}Specifies the source IP
address or hostname. When a source IP address or hostname is not
specified, IP SLAs chooses the IP address nearest to the destination.
(Optional) source-interface interface-id—Specifies the source interface
for the operation.
Step 4 frequency seconds (Optional) Sets the rate at which a specified IP SLAs operation repeats. The
range is from 1 to 604800 seconds; the default is 60 secon ds.
