IPSLA

 Active way to monitor and report on network performance.

Example with multiple WAN links for healthcare.



Configuration

We will first make an entry for IPSLA

(config)#ip sla "2"

You can use multiple protocols and debug tools to run in your IPSLA "entry" including but not limited to TCP, FTP, UDP(voice/video etc), and MPLS

(config-ip-sla)#tcp-connect "other end of link IP" "port" control enable

(config-ip-sla-tcp)#timeout "ms"

Start the IPSLA entry

(config)#ip sla schedule "2" life "forever" start-time "now"

We Can also track an interface with IPSLA

(config)#ip route "0.0.0.0" "0.0.0.0" "10.1.1.2" track "2"
