Procedure
- In Secure Access, navigate to Experience Insights > Insights Management>Endpoint tests.
- Above the Endpoint tests table, click Add new > Network.
- Define the agents and target destination under Add network test.
-
Name—Enter a name that identifies the agent-to-server test (such as target domain name or IP address).
-
From—Specify one or more agents or groups of agents by location.
-
If you select all agents from a given location, the test will be associated with the agents that are currently present for that location.
-
If a new agent becomes available for the location when the test is run, the agent won't be included in the test. To add the new location, create a new test or clone the existing test.
-
A single synthetic test is limited to a maximum of 150,000 endpoint agents.
-
-
To
-
Private resource: Choose an IP address from the dropdown. Only VPN is supported.
-
Custom target: Specify an IP address or Web URL.
-
-
Protocol:
-
Auto-detect—The default and recommended option. Auto-detect tries several probes to identify the best test method for the device's current network conditions.
-
ICMP
-
ICMP + TCP Connect—Enables a TCP connection with a 10-second timeout and closes the connection if it is unable to connect. Unsuccessful connections count towards the TCP-connection failures metric.
-
Prefer TCP (ICMP fallback)
-
TCP
-
-
Port:
-
The field will auto-populate for configured ports. For non-configured resources and resources that have multiple ports, enter the port number(s).
-
If you entered a custom target, accept the default value or leave the field blank.
-
-
Test interval—Select the frequency of the test run.
-
The Network traffic calculator is available to help you ensure your network can support the maximum throughput for private resources considering the number of endpoints that will be registered.
-
The calculator assumes all endpoints run the test at the same time. Actual testing may distribute network traffic over the test interval configured above.
-
For high traffic management strategies, see Estimate Peak Traffic to Custom Targets for Default Endpoint Tests.
-
-
- Click Save test.
Before running large-scale tests, run a test with a small subset of agents to ensure that your network can support the test traffic between Secure Access and your on-premise environment.
