Using Diagnostic Tools
This chapter describes how to use diagnostic tools to help you to capture and analyze routing platform control traffic. JUNOScope supports the following diagnostic tools:
- LSP Ping—LSP ping is used to isolate and identify faults in an MPLS-based network.
- Ping—Ping is used to verify that the host can be reached over the network. The output is useful for diagnosing host and network connectivity problems.
- Traceroute—Traceroute is used to display a list of routers that exist between the device and a specified destination host. This output is useful for diagnosing a point of failure in the path from the device to the destination host, and addressing the network traffic latency and throughput problems.
- BERT Test — Bit error rate testing is used to test the quality of links.
You must have read-only, read-write, and superuser permissions to use the diagnostic tools.
