Performing SD-WAN cloud assisted monitoring speed tests
FortiManager devices with the FortiGuard SD-WAN Underlay Bandwidth and Quality Monitoring Service subscription have the ability to execute a speed test on-demand from the SD-WAN Monitor page. The speed test can be executed on interfaces that have the WAN role.
To execute an SD-WAN speed test:
- Speed tests can be performed from the SD-WAN Manager > Network > Monitor page through one of the following methods:
- Select a device from the SDWAN Monitor Table View and click Execute Speed Test.
- Hover your mouse over the interface of a device in the SDWAN Monitor Map View and click Execute Speed Test.
- For devices with a valid license and an interface configured with the WAN role, the Execute Speed Test option is displayed for the interface.
- If there is a valid route to the cloud server, you will get measured bandwidth when executing the speed test.
- If there is not a valid route to the cloud server, you will see an error message when executing the speed test.
- You can perform the speed test up to 10 times per day. Attempts to perform additional speed tests will present an error message.
- For devices without a valid license, or for devices with a valid license but without an interface configured to the WAN role, the Execute Speed Test option is not displayed.
- If there is a valid route to the cloud server, you will get measured bandwidth when executing the speed test.
- The results of the latest speed test are displayed on the SD-WAN Manager > Network > Monitor page.
