Test Packets sends test packets with ASCII payloads including the phrase, "EvenGooder test packet." Accordingly, on the targeted UAG appliances
you can view these test packets crossing the eth0 interface using tcpdump and grep.
To install tcpdump on UAG:
/etc/vmware/gss-support/install.sh
To capture EvenGooder test packets from troubleshoot.evengooder.com:
tcpdump -i eth0 -l -A -n -v | grep "EvenGooder"
(Note: The first option after eth0 is a lowercase L, to make stdout line buffered.)
By default the utility will first send a packet to TCP port 443, then TCP and UDP packets to whatever port is specified.
Here's an example of a successful test against uag.evengooder.com, port 8443:
