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.

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 for Zero Trust Access.

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

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.
