Configuring the DHCP Test
The DHCP test is mainly used to test the existence of a DHCP server on the network as well as the time
necessary for the DHCP server to respond to a client request and assign an IP address to the client.
Configuration prerequisites
Before performing a DHCP test, you need to configure the DHCP server. If the NQA (DHCP client) and
the DHCP server are not in the same network segment, you need to configure a DHCP relay. For the
configuration of DHCP server and DHCP relay, refer to DHCP in H3C WX6103 Access Controller
Switch Interface Board Configuration Guide .
Configuring the DHCP test
Follow these steps to configure the DHCP test:
To do… Use the command… Remarks

Required
By default, no interface is specified
to perform a DHCP test.
The interface specified by the
source interface
command must
be up; otherwise, the test fails.

Group Optional
As DHCP test is a process to simulate address allocation in DHCP, the IP address of the interface
performing the DHCP test will not be changed.
Configuring the FTP Test
The FTP test is mainly used to test the connection with a specified FTP server and the time necessary
for the FTP client to transfer a file to or download a file from the FTP server.
Configuration prerequisites
Before the FTP test, you need to perform some configurations on the FTP server. For example, you
need to configure the username and password used to log onto the FTP server. For the FTP server
configuration, refer to File System Management in H3C WX6103 Access Controller Switch Interface
Board Configuration Guide .
