Configuring RPM with a Configuration Editor

To configure the Services Router to perform real-time performance tests, you perform
the following tasks. For information about using the J-Web and CLI configuration
editors, see the J-series Services Router Basic LAN and WAN Access Configuration Guide.

Configuring Basic RPM Probes

To configure basic RPM probes, you must configure the probe owner, the test, and
the specific parameters of the RPM probe.

For ICMP ping, ICMP ping timestamp, UDP ping, and UDP ping timestamp probes,
you can also set a timestamp to improve the measurement of latency or jitter. The
probe is timestamped by the router originating the probe (the RPM client).

In this sample use of RPM, basic probes are configured for two customers: Customer A
and Customer B. The probe for Customer A uses ICMP timestamp packets and sets
RPM thresholds and corresponding SNMP traps to catch lengthy inbound times. The
