Network

Messages in the Network category sum up the statistics about the client's connection with the DME server. This means that a client's connection to the DME server for synchronization and system information exchange, and the interaction with the collaboration system are added up in the Network category. This way you can see the total connection time (here), the time spent negotiating with the collaboration system (in the Collaboration category), and the time spent synchronizing (in the Synchronizing category). The data in this category forms the basis of the statistics shown in the Analyzer tab.

The network information is shown as a table, which might look like this:

Function

This is the type of communication which was performed with the collaboration system. For more information about each type of network connection, see below.

Remote address

This row states the remote IP address of the device that made the network connection, and whether the connection was secure (https). If you let the mouse pointer rest on the "secure connection" part of this row, a tooltip text will show the type of security that was in force during the connection - for instance TLS RSA with AES 256 CBC SHA.

Data received

The total amount of data received by the server, and the rate by which the "payload" part of the data was compressed. The payload is the total amount of data, less http headers etc. (which cannot be compressed). If you let the mouse pointer rest on the percentage part of this row, a tooltip text will show the technology that was employed to compress the data in this connection - for instance LZRW1.

Data sent

The total amount of data sent to the device by the server, and the rate by which the payload part of the data was compressed. The compression technology is shown as a tooltip.

G/On

For AppBox verification, this row states whether the user is permitted to use AppBox by checking with the G/On server.

Request duration

The total duration of the network connection, including authentication, collaboration system interaction, and synchronization.

Status

This row shows whether the current network connection was successful.

Please note that the Ok simply means that the connection went well - but the connection might in fact have been an error message sent to the client. If the Ok is written in red, followed by an exclamation mark, it means that an error message was sent to the client. If you let the mouse pointer rest on the Ok, you can see the error message. See the graphic below. The message is usually preceded by a similar System category message.

The other graphic below shows an entry with a non-OK status due to an authentication error.

Stream duration

For Adaptive push - stream closed messages, this is the total duration of the network stream session that was just closed.

The following functions are recorded as network connection types. For each function, statistics about the connection type, total data amount, total duration of the connection, and status are shown. Note that if the function is written in square brackets, for instance [email], it is an indication that the request was unsuccessful (could not be parsed by the server).
