check

Three sets of validation commands are available, all for verifying the health and performance of network protocols and services:

netq check commands. These commands check whether your network’s devices, hosts, network protocols, and services are operating as expected. They ‘validate’ your network against an ideal setup and report mismatches and recommendations. They allow filtering by hostname, can include or exclude selected tests, and some have additional options. Commands with a streaming option run streaming checks by default to return results faster. To run a non-streaming validation, include the legacy option.
netq add validation commands. Use these commands to validate various elements in your network fabric. The results appear in the Validation Result cards in the UI, where you can filter them.
Validation management commands. netq show validation settings displays a list of all jobs and job settings and netq del validation allows you to remove validations.

Refer to Validation Checks for a description of the tests run as part of each validation.

netq check addresses

Searches for duplicate IPv4 and IPv6 addresses assigned to interfaces across devices in the inventory, and checks for duplicate /32 host routes in each VRF.

netq check bgp

Validates that all configured route peering is established in your network fabric by looking for consistency across BGP sessions; in particular, whether duplicate router IDs exist and if any sessions are in the unestablished state. If you have nodes that implement virtual routing and forwarding (VRF), you can request status based on the relevant routing table. VRF is commonly configured in multi-tenancy deployments to maintain separate domains for each tenant.

The output displays the status (passed/failed/skipped) of all tests and a summary including:

Number of nodes that have been silent for 120 seconds (rotten)
Number of nodes with warnings
Total number of BGP sessions at the specified time
Number of sessions that have failed to establish a connection

peer connectivity
conflicted bonds
whether the backup IP address is pointing to the correct peer

netq check interfaces

Verifies interface communication status for all nodes (leafs, spines, and hosts) or an interface between specific nodes in your network fabric. In particular, it looks for:

Administrative and operational state status
Link speed consistency
Autonegotiation-settings consistency

The output displays the status (passed/failed/skipped) of all tests and a summary including:

Total number of nodes found
Number of nodes validated
Number of nodes that failed validation
Number of nodes that have been silent for 120 seconds (rotten)
Number of nodes with warnings
Number of ports validated
Number of ports that failed validation
Number of unverified ports (no peer found for the node)

This command only checks the physical interfaces; it does not check bridges, bonds, or other software constructs.

Sample Usage

The following example runs a check on two devices: noc-se and noc-pr. The output reports several errors, including a peerlink MTU mismatch, a bond MTU mismatch, a bond in a conflicted state, and a singly-connected bond. To resolve these errors, reconfigure the mismatched values and bring up the bond interface that is in a down state. Then run the command again to verify the new configurations.

netq check mtu

Verifies consistency of the maximum transmission unit (MTU) across all links in your network fabric. The command verifies the MTU consistency at the level appropriate to the specific type of link. For example, bond interfaces have their MTU enforced at the bond level and not at the individual slave level. For MLAG/CLAG bonds, verification confirms whether both ends of the bond have the same MTU value configured for their local instance of the bond. You can also view nodes without a peer link.

The output displays the status (passed/failed/skipped) of all tests and a summary including:

Total number of nodes found
Number of nodes validated
Number of nodes that failed validation
Number of nodes that have been silent for 120 seconds (rotten)
Number of nodes with warnings
Number of links validated
Number of links that failed validation
Number of links that had warnings

Total number of nodes found
Number of nodes validated
Number of nodes that failed validation
Number of nodes that have been silent for 120 seconds (rotten)

netq check roce

Searches for consistent RoCE and QoS configurations across nodes.

This command captures mismatches on NVUE-enabled switches running Cumulus Linux 5.0 or later and NetQ Agent 4.6.0. Priority code point (PCP) validations require a switch running NetQ Agent 4.5 or later.

json	NA	Display the output in JSON format
summary	NA	Display only the summary information and test results. Do not display details for tests that failed or had warnings.

Sample Usage

The following example displays several RoCE errors in the network’s fabric. The ‘RoCE mode test’ indicates that switches are running in both lossy and lossless modes, which must be reconciled. The other errors report configuration mismatches along with the expected configurations. To fix these errors, reconfigure RoCE according to the recommendations reported in the output. Then run the command again to verify its accuracy.

netq check vxlan

Verifies consistency of the virtual extensible local area network (VXLAN) nodes and interfaces across all links in your network fabric. In particular, it looks for consistent VXLAN configuration and BUM replication errors.

The output displays the status (passed/failed/skipped) of all tests and a summary including:

Total number of nodes found
Number of nodes validated
Number of nodes that failed validation
Number of nodes that have been silent for 120 seconds (rotten)
Number of nodes with warnings

Syntax

netq check vxlan
    [label <text-label-name> | hostnames <text-list-hostnames>]
    [check_filter_id <text-check-filter-id>]
    [include <vxlan-number-range-list> | exclude <vxlan-number-range-list>]
    [around <text-time>]
    [streaming | legacy]
    [json | summary]

Required Arguments

None

Options

Option	Value	Description
label	<text-label-name>	Reserved
hostnames	<text-list-hostnames>	Comma-separated list (no spaces) of hostnames to include in validation
check_filter_id	<text-check-filter-id>	Include the specific filter for a validation
include	<agent-number-range-list>	Include the specified validation tests
exclude	<agent-number-range-list>	Exclude the specified validation tests
around	<text-time>	Indicates how far to go back in time for the network state information. Write the value using text (versus a UTP representation for example). Note there is no space between the number and unit of time. Valid values include: <1-xx>s: number of seconds <1-xx>m: number of minutes <1-xx>h: number of hours <1-xx>d: number of days
streaming	NA	Perform a streaming query check
legacy	NA	Perform a non-streaming query check
json	NA	Display the output in JSON format
summary	NA	Display only the summary information and test results. Do not display details for tests that failed or had warnings.
