Clients

The clients section contains a list of all clients that are registered to your tenant. For each of the clients you can see more details about the collected data by clicking on the Details button. A client can also be removed by clicking on the Remove button. This won't stop an active client from running. But a removed client can't post any more data to the portal and will no longer be visible in the portal.

Client overview

The overview tab gives a first overview of a client. The client status section shows the latest status of the client's connection and provides general information about the client. overview-1

The highlights section displays the performance of selected tests to hint for possible network bottlenecks or performance issues on the client. The events chart and top ten events table display all test issues and their frequency during the selected time range. The time range can be chosen among predefined values like Last 3 days or can be set to a custom range. overview-2

System profile

The System profile tab shows the network environment and system configuration data of the device a client runs on. The system profile data is also shown on the client (see System profile). The date selection can be used to display any past system profile data. To inspect whether test issues are related to changes in the system profile data, one can use the client's analyze section.

Health

The client health gives an overview of the client's connection status over the day. Yellow, red or grey columns indicate that the client reported several issues within 15 minutes. A click on one health chart directs to the test results where the exact measurements can be inspected.

See the Health documentation to learn how to use the charts.

If you determine a test at the client's health with issues that occur only from time to time, then those issues could be related to some network or system configuration of the client's device. This can be inspected in the Analyze section (see below).

Analyze

The Analyze section lets you inspect whether issues of a test are related to changes in the system profile data. To find any of those relations:

  1. Select the test you want to analyze.
  2. All possibly related system profile entries are then listed below. Click on one for details.
  3. The column chart shows how many issues were reported for each configuration. The number of issues is relative and shows how many test results were unsuccessful over the time the configuration was used.
  4. The pie chart shows how much time each of the configurations was actually used by the client over the day.
