Probe Settings Configuration
A single Probe enables monitoring of multiple devices on the same IP network. If the container in which the Probe is added contains subcontainers, the Probe can monitor the devices in the subcontainers also.
Do the following steps:
1. Access the Probe’s dashboard.
2. From the Probe’s dashboard, select Probe Settings under the System Administration menu.
The Probe properties sheet is displayed.
3. Edit and change property settings as required. In addition to general settings available to all Mitel Performance Analytics devices, Probe settings include:

IP SLA Monitoring |
Select the Enabled check box to enable IP SLA monitoring. Enter up to four IP SLA targets, specifying either the target IP address or the FQDN. Recommended IP SLA targets include your trunk provider and other critical systems like email, CRM, or any remote network segment that might be involved in a call path. For each target, you can specify Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP) settings. You can choose from Best Effort (0), High Priority (46), or a variety of Assured Forwarding (AF) or Class Selector (CS) settings. Note: If setting up SLA monitoring for SIP trunks, SIP Trunks must be configured on Mitel devices.
