Ping Latency report

Overview

A Ping Latency report can be run by itself or as a drill-down from a Ping Network Site Summary report. The report shows the graph of latency for a selected test during a specified time period.

The report includes the following test types:

ETH-CFM Two-Way Delay
ICMP Ping
VCCV Ping
LSP Ping
Tunnel Ping

Use cases

QoS analysis—Identify potential service impacting issues based on thresholds for latency, jitter, and packet loss between specific NEs.

Report inputs

The following table shows the report inputs.
