Use this command in the ICMP echo configuration sub-mode of IP SLA configuration to set the upper threshold value for calculating network monitoring statistics created by an IP SLAs operation.
| Default | 5000 milliseconds |
| Format | threshold milliseconds |
| Mode | IP SLA ICMP ECHO Config |
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| milliseconds | Length of the time in milliseconds, required for a rising threshold to be declared. Range is 50 to 60000. Default is 5000. |
Usage Guidelines
The value specified for this command must not be greater than the value specified for the timeout command. The threshold value configured by this command is used only to calculate network monitoring statistics created by an IP SLAs operation.
For the IP SLAs ICMP Echo operation, the threshold (IP SLA) command sets the upper threshold value for the round-trip time (RTT) measurement.
Following are the recommended guidelines for configuring the frequency, timeout and threshold commands of the IP SLAs ICMP Echo operation:
(frequency seconds) then (timeout milliseconds) then (threshold milliseconds)
This command is supported in IPv4 networks and also for IPv6 networks where IPv6 addresses are supported.
Example: The following example shows how to configure the threshold of the IP SLAs ICMP echo operation to 3500. This example shows the threshold (IP SLA) command being used in an IPv4 network in ICMP echo configuration mode within IP SLA configuration mode:
(Routing)(config)#ip sla 11 (Routing)(config-ip-sla)#icmp-echo 152.17.10.145 (Routing)(config-ip-sla-echo)#threshold 3500
