300-410 Practice Question: Which IP SLA operation type is specifically…

Which IP SLA operation type is specifically designed to measure one-way delay, jitter, and packet loss using UDP packets with sequence numbers and timestamps?

Answer choices

Why each option matters

Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.

Correct answer & explanation

✓

UDP Jitter

The UDP Jitter operation (type 3) sends UDP packets with embedded sequence numbers and timestamps to measure one-way delay, jitter, and packet loss between source and destination.

Answer analysis

Option-by-option breakdown

For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.

  • ✗

    UDP Echo

    Why it's wrong here

    UDP Echo measures round-trip time, not one-way metrics.

  • ✓

    UDP Jitter

    Why this is correct

    Correct. UDP Jitter is designed for one-way delay, jitter, and packet loss measurement.

  • ✗

    ICMP Path Echo

    Why it's wrong here

    ICMP Path Echo traces the path, not jitter or one-way delay.

  • ✗

    TCP Connect

    Why it's wrong here

    TCP Connect measures connection setup time, not jitter.

Variation 1. Which IP SLA operation type is used to measure one-way delay, jitter, and packet loss?

medium
  • ✓ A.udp-jitter
  • B.icmp-echo
  • C.udp-echo
  • D.tcp-connect

Why A: The udp-jitter operation type measures one-way delay, jitter, and packet loss by sending a stream of UDP packets and analyzing the responses.
