Remote Testing¶

Remote Testing using the Weylon application allows for increased visibility into customer issues. The process consists of 3 steps.

Testing Results

Reports for data visualization of test results are currently in development.

Provision Test¶

First, provision the desired test in the ConnexCS Control Panel. Go to Global Weylon. This will list any existing tests.

Create Test Configuration

Click the to create a new testing configuration.

Name: Name the new test, ideally something descriptive so you know what it will test
ID: This is randomly generated by the system
Show Output: When Enabled, it will display real-time results while the tests are running on the customer equipment. When Disabled, a progress bar is displayed, so there isn't confusion about what all the results mean while the test is still running.

Add Criteria

Next to Criteria, click the to specify the test parameters

Type: Select to run Ping, Simulate Media, or Trace Route
Host: Specify the IP or FQDN
Level: There are 3 options to choose from which will vary the intensity of the test:
- Basic- single, quick test
- Standard- captures moderate amount of data without being too detailed
- Advanced- detailed soak test which can last several minutes

Save work

Next, the customer will need to install Weylon on their Linux machine.

Install the application

wget https://app.connexcs.com/files/weylon

chmod +x ./weylon

Execute the test

./weylon -i ABCD

All test results will report back to your Control Panel under Global Weylon.
