Packet Traffic - Endpoint Test

This test monitors the incoming and outgoing data packet traffic through each Dell Wyse thin client.

Target of the test : Dell Wyse Client Group

Agent deploying the test : A remote agent

Outputs of the test : One set of results for every Dell Wyse thin client:network interface combination

Configurable parameters for the test
Parameter Description

Test Period

How often should the test be executed.

Host

The nick name of the Dell Wyse Client Group component for which this test is to be configured.

Port

Refers to the port at which the specified host listens to. By default, this is NULL.

Inside View Using

To obtain the 'inside view' of performance of the Dell Wyse thin clients - i.e., to measure the internal performance of the Dell Wyse thin clients - this test uses a light-weight VM Agent software deployed on each of the Dell Wyse thin clients. The VM Agents collect performance metrics from the Dell Wyse thin clients and communicate the metrics to the eG remote agent using TCP protocol. Accordingly, by default, this parameter is set to eG VM Agent.
