Applicability
This example applies to all versions and Huawei wireless routers.
NQA for static IPv4 routes can quickly detect network
faults and control advertisement of static routes. As shown in Figure 1, RouterA connects to RouterB through
GE2/0/0 and connects to RouterC through GE1/0/0. Two links are available from
RouterA to RouterD: RouterA-->RouterB-->RouterD (primary link) and
RouterA-->RouterC-->RouterD (backup link).Configure an NQA ICMP test
intance on RouterA to detect the active link. When the active link becomes
faulty, packets sent from RouterA to RouterD are switched to the standby link.
1. Configure RouterA.

ip route-static 192.168.5.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.2 preference 100 //Set the preference of static routes to 100
so that the static routes can be used as backup routes.
ip route-static 192.168.5.0 255.255.255.0 GigabitEthernet2/0/0
192.168.4.2 track nqa admin icmp //Configure a
static route to associate it with an NQA test instance.
#
nqa test-instance admin icmp
//Configure an NQA test instance named admin icmp.
test-type
icmp //Set the test type to ICMP.
destination-address
ipv4 192.168.3.1 //Set the
destination address of the NQA test instance to 192.168.3.1.
frequency
10 //Set the interval between two
NQA tests to 10s.
probe-count
2 //Set the number of test probes
of an NQA test instance to 2.
start
now //Start the NQA test instance
immediately.
#
2. Configure RouterB.
#
sysname RouterB
#
interface
GigabitEthernet1/0/0
ip address 192.168.3.2 255.255.255.0
#
interface
GigabitEthernet2/0/0
ip address 192.168.4.2 255.255.255.0
#
ip route-static 192.168.5.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.3.1
ip route-static 192.168.6.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.4.1
#
3. Configure RouterC.
#
sysname RouterC
#
interface
GigabitEthernet1/0/0
ip address 192.168.1.2 255.255.255.0
#
interface
GigabitEthernet2/0/0
ip address 192.168.2.1 255.255.255.0
#
ip route-static 192.168.5.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.2.2
ip route-static 192.168.6.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.1
#
4. Configure RouterD.
#
sysname RouterD
#
interface
GigabitEthernet1/0/0
ip address 192.168.3.1
255.255.255.0
#
interface
GigabitEthernet2/0/0
ip address 192.168.2.2
255.255.255.0
#
interface
GigabitEthernet3/0/0
ip address 192.168.5.1
255.255.255.0
#
ip route-static 192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.2.1
ip route-static 192.168.4.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.3.2
ip route-static 192.168.6.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.3.2
ip route-static 192.168.6.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.2.1
#
5. Verify the
configuration.
Run the display nqa results test-instance admin icmp command on RouterA to
view the NQA test result. The command output displays "Lost packet ratio:
0 %", indicating that the link status is normal. Run the display ip routing-table command on
RouterA to view the IP routing table. The routing table contains the static
route with destination network segment 192.168.5.0/24 and next-hop address
192.168.4.2. There is no static route with preference 100 in the routing table.
Run the shutdown command in the view of GE1/0/0 or GE2/0/0 on RouterB to
simulate a link failure. Run the display
nqa results test-instance admin icmp command on RouterA to view the NQA
test result. The command output displays "Completion:failed" and
"Lost packet ratio: 100 %, indicating that a link failure has been
detected. Then run the display ip
routing-table command on RouterA to view the IP routing table. The
routing table contains the static route with preference 100. There is no static
route with destination network segment 192.168.5.0/24 and next-hop address
192.168.4.2.
- The static route associated with an NQA test instance is deleted from the routing table only when the NQA test fails. You can run the display nqa results command to view the NQA test result.
- Before modifying the configuration of an NQA test instance, stop the NQA test instance.
- If the static route associated with one NQA test instance is associated with another NQA test instance, the association between the static route and the former NQA test instance is removed.
- Only the NQA ping test instance is used so that RouterA switches services based on the test result. There is no requirement for the peer device configuration.
