I want to use a tool that will time the "outage" automatically. For example, switches with ERPS capability usually claim things like "sub 50ms recovery". How can I time that recovery on my actual system?
I picture running some continuous data stream between two points, and measuring any gaps in received data... but automatically instead of weeding through the stream in wireshark. ------------------------------ On Mon, Jan 29, 2018 at 9:46 AM, Faisal Imtiaz <[email protected]> wrote: > Not sure what exactly are you asking about ? > > How to break stuff ? > and or How to know when it is fixes ? > > On a serious note, it depends on what you are testing.. > e.g. one can easily simulate OSPF failover by turning a link / ethernet / > radio port off.. and watching a traceroute (MTR or Pathping, Pingplotter > etc etc ) > and or watching the Router Logs > > Regards. > > Faisal Imtiaz > Snappy Internet & Telecom > http://www.snappytelecom.net > > Tel: 305 663 5518 x 232 <(305)%20663-5518> > > Help-desk: (305)663-5518 <(305)%20663-5518> Option 2 or Email: > [email protected] > > ------------------------------ > > *From: *"Christopher Gray" <[email protected]> > *To: *[email protected] > *Sent: *Monday, January 29, 2018 9:17:26 AM > *Subject: *[AFMUG] Failover / Recovery Time Testing? > > What tools do you suggest for testing failover time / recovery time? > I've got several different failover mechanisms in use, and I'd like to > start empirically testing them to have a better sense of their performance. > > Thank you - Chris > >
