NOTE:
NQA ICMP echo tests are not supported in IPv6 networks. To test the reachability of an IPv6 address, use
the ping ipv6 command. For more information about the command, see the

Monitoring Command Reference.
Configuring DHCP tests
DHCP tests of an NQA test group are used to test if a DHCP server is on the network, and how long it
takes for the DHCP server to respond to a client request and assign an IP address to the client.
Configuration prerequisites
Before you start DHCP tests, configure the DHCP server. If the NQA (DHCP client) and the DHCP server
are not in the same network segment, configure a DHCP relay agent.
NOTE:
HP A3100 v2 Switch Series do not support the DHCP server and DHCP relay agent configuration.
Configuring DHCP tests
Follow these steps to configure DHCP tests:

Required
By default, no interface is
configured to perform DHCP tests.
The specified interface must be up;
otherwise, no probe packets can
be sent out.
Configure optional parameters
See “Configuring optional
parameters for an NQA test
group”
Optional
NOTE:
• The interface that performs DHCP tests does not change its IP address. A DHCP test only simulates
address allocation in DHCP.
• When a DHCP test completes, the NQA client sends a DHCP-RELEASE packet to release the obtained IP
address.
Configuring DNS tests
DNS tests of an NQA test group are used to test whether the NQA client can translate a domain name
into an IP address through a DNS server and test the time required for resolution.
