Create HTTP Server Tests

HTTP server tests measure the response time and denote the response code of a web server.

Prerequisites

  • Endpoints must have requisite permissions to access the test's target application. For more information, see Manage Access Policies.
  • Endpoints must meet testing capacity requirements. For more information, see Endpoint Agent Licensing.

Zero Trust Access prerequisites:

  • Endpoints must meet Zero Trust Access posture-profile requirements. For more information, see Manage Zero Trust Access Posture Profiles.
  • End users must be enrolled in Zero Trust Access and be signed into their OS.
  • Strongly recommended: When testing private resources, turn off the user-authentication interval to prevent end users from receiving unexpected reauthentication notifications. You must turn off the user authentication globally and for the specific HTTP server test. For more information, see: Rule Defaults: Default Settings for Access Rules and Network Requirements.

Procedure

  1. From the left menu, go to: Experience Insights > Insights Management>Endpoint tests.
  2. On the Endpoint Tests page, click Add new > HTTP.
  1. On the Add HTTP test page, complete the fields:

  • From —Choose the agents that the test will run on.
    • Note: If you select all agents for a given location, the test will be associated with the agents that are currently present for that location. If a new agent becomes available for that location when the test is run, the agent won't be included in the test. To add a new location, create a new test or clone the existing test.
  • To—Do one of the following:
    • Click the Private resources radio button and choose VPN or ZTA private resource.
    • Click the Custom target radio button and enter a url for the test target.
  • Protocol:
    • Auto-detect—The default (recommended) option. Auto-detect tries several probes to identify the best test method for the device's current network conditions.
    • ICMP + TCP Connect—Enables a TCP connection with a 10-second timeout and closes the connection if it is unable to connect. Unsuccessful connections count towards the TCP-connection failures metric.
    • Prefer TCP—Falls back to ICMP if TCP is unavailable.
  • Test interval—Select the frequency of the test run.
  1. Click Save test.
