IP-sla udp-jitter / one-way delay no output

Hi *,

i have a question regarding "ip sla udp-jitter".
On some connectins i get an output for the "show ip sla stat" for the _one-way delay_
on other links i don't get an output. The Configuration is always the same and the Probes are running.
NTP is configured but in my opinion the fact weather i get output for the _one-way delay_
or not depends on the ntp root despersion.
Is there a max allowed time differances between the two routes ?

Here one working / one not working output of the same Router but different peers:

Not working::

Latest operation return code: OK

RTT Values:

Number Of RTT: 100RTT Min/Avg/Max: 11/11/13 milliseconds

Destination to Source Latency one way Min/Avg/Max: 0/0/0 milliseconds

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Working:

Latest operation return code: OK

RTT Values:

Number Of RTT: 100RTT Min/Avg/Max: 12/13/14 milliseconds

Latency one-way time:

Number of Latency one-way Samples: 100

Source to Destination Latency one way Min/Avg/Max: 6/7/8 milliseconds

Destination to Source Latency one way Min/Avg/Max: 5/6/7 milliseconds

I hope one of you can help me to find / fix the problem,

Thanks in advance / Emanuel

Hi everyone,

I have the same doubt.

I did a ip sla configuration on 1841 and 7206VXR and don't show nothing in one-way delay.

Hi Emanuel,

I think the most likely cause here is that the NTP clocks on *some* of your responders are out of sync by more than 15% (of the latency measure in that packet) compared to the source router.

Enable debug for ip sla trace, and check the log for messages similar to the following:

029474: Aug 11 13:09:29.829 CDT: IPSLA-OPER_TRACE:OPER:1 icmp-jitter STS:65369798, RTD: 65369759, STD: 65369760, RTS: 65369831

The value from STS, RTD, STD and RTS should be in ascending order:    STS < RTD < STD < RTS.

In my example there, the log shows RTD is smaller than STS. Unfortunately, with  icmp-jitter, you can only try to bring Responder back in sync.

If you cannot bring time in sync between 2 devices, then alternatively, you might try to use udp-jitter which allows you to configure clock-tolerance.
Here's an example:

rt1(config-ip-sla)#udp-jitter 2.2.2.2 222

rt1(config-ip-sla-jitter)#clock-tolerance ntp oneway percent ?

  <0-100>  Percent of value measured

Can you use udp-jitter, or configure the clocks to bring them closer to sync?

Curtis

This solution does not work. When i configure clock-tolerance to any number it is still the same result: Number of latency samples = 0. And about the second solution - how am i supposed to bring 2 routers closer to sync when they are connected directly with ethernet cable one is NTP server and second is client?

was this issue solved?

If the routers are directly connected, IP SLA could be rounding the values to 0 if the OW delay is < .5 ms.
