Measurement | Description | Measurement Unit | Interpretation |
---|---|---|---|
Availability: |
Whether the TCP connection is available |
Percent |
An availability problem can be caused by different factors - e.g., the server process may not be up, a network problem may exist, or there could be a configuration problem with the DNS server. |
Response time: |
Time taken (in seconds) by the server to respond to a request. |
Secs |
An increase in response time can be caused by several factors such as a server bottleneck, a configuration problem with the DNS server, a network problem, etc. |
