Table 3-8, Server Application Responses Metrics, provides definitions of each field of the Server Application Responses window.

Table 3-8 Server Application Responses Metrics

Field	Description
Client Site	Name of the client site.
Server Site	Name of the server site.
Data Source	Name of the data source
VLAN	VLAN
Server	Name or IP address of the server
Application	Application currently running
Number of Clients	Total number of clients
Number of Responses	Total number of responses
Average Client Network Time	Client Network Time is the network time between a client and the NAM
(ms)	switch or router.
Maximum Client Network Time	In WAAS monitoring, Client Network Time from a WAE client data
(ms)	source represents the network RTT between the client and its edge
	WAE, while Client Network Time from the WAE server data source
	represents the WAN RTT (between the edge and core WAEs).
Average Server Response Time	Server Response Time is the time it takes an application server (for
(ms)	example, a web server) to respond to a request. This is the server "think
	time," which is the time between the client request arriving at the server
Maximum Server Response
Time (ms)	and the first response packet being returned by the server.
	Increases in the server response time usually indicate problems with
	application and/or server resources, such as the CPU, Memory, Disk, or
	I/O.
Average Total Response Time	Total Response Time is the total amount of time between the client
(ms)	request and when the client receives the first response packet from the
	server.
Maximum Total Response Time
(ms)
