Otherwise, your HWPing test may failor the service corresponding to the well-knownport may become unavailable.1.1.3 HWPing Test ParametersYou need to configure corresponding test parameters for each type of HWPing test.HWPing test parameters can be configured on HWPing client only. For theconfigurations on HWPing client, refer to section HWPing Client Configuration.Table 1-2 HWPing test parametersTest parameter DescriptionDestination address(destination-ip)For TCP/UDP/jitter test, you must specify a destinationIP address, and the destination address must be the IPaddress of a TCP/UDP/UDP listening serviceconfigured on the HWPing server.
