Chapter 3 Monitoring and Analysis

Response Time

Note NAM uses the TCP three-way handshake to calculate network delay. If there are no new TCP connections during the polling interval, the NAM GUI displays a dash (-) for the delay value indicating there is no delay data for that interval.

Table 3-10, Server Network Responses Window, provides definitions of each field of the Server Network Response Times window.

Table 3-10 Server Network Responses Window

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 being used by server

 

 

Number of Clients

Total number of clients during the monitoring interval

 

 

Number of Connections

Total number of connections during the monitoring interval

 

 

Average Server Network

Average of the Server Network Time (network time between a server and

Time (ms)

NAM probing point).

 

 

Maximum Server Network

Maximum of the Server Network Time (network time between a server and

Time (ms)

NAM probing point).

 

 

Average Network Time

Average of the network time between client and server. Network Time is the

 

sum of Client Network Time and Server Network Time. NAM measures the

 

Network Time using TCP 3-way handshakes. If there are no new TCP

 

connections made during the monitoring interval, this metric is not reported.

 

 

Maximum Network Time

Maximum of the network time between client and server.

 

 

Server Bytes

Number of TCP payload bytes sent from the server(s) during the monitoring

 

interval.

 

 

Client Bytes

Number of TCP payload bytes sent from the client(s) during the monitoring

 

interval.
