Testing Packets in IP SLA

Hello,

I need to test layer 2 packets using IP SLA but I am a little stuck as to what type of operation to choose.

If any one has any recommendations or instructions this would be very helpful.

Regards,

Hello It does not say what or why you are testing layer 2 frames. ICMP Echo is a good start. HTTP can test to a URL. DNS can test to the DNS server a host name or an IP. TCP Connect can test to a IP/ tcp port
