Choose Tools→Service Test Manager (STM) from the NFM-P main menu. The Manage Tests form appears.

Click Create.

Choose MPLS→Create LSP Trace from the Create contextual menu. The LSP trace create form appears.

Note: You must use the LSP Trace diagnostic to test the service in both directions for the connection.

Configure the required parameters for the diagnostic session and run the diagnostic. Target an LSP, any LSP or an LSP path. Choose the MPLS site for the test, then configure the LSP or LDP you want to trace that is associated with the MPLS site, in this case, an LSP Ping from site ID 10.1.200.51/32 to site ID 10.1.200.52/32 using the network in Figure 6-1, Sample network.

Click on the Results tab to view the list of trace responses. Double-click on a row in the list to view its details. Double-click on the entry in the LSP Trace results form to view the diagnostic details.

Review the diagnostic results and assess whether the configuration meets the network requirements.

1. If the LSP Trace returned the expected results for the configuration of your network, the troubleshooting is complete.

2. If the LSP Trace did not return the expected results for the configuration of your network, verify that the correct MPLS LSP is used for the service.

If the service problem persists, another type of service problem may be present. Perform the steps of Workflow to troubleshoot a service or connectivity problem.

If the troubleshooting workflow does not identify the problem with your service, contact your technical support representative; see Chapter 1, NSP troubleshooting overview.
