Description: Metric Name: Type-P-APM-Transaction-Responsiveness

Metric Definition: This metric characterizes the speed at which a transaction-oriented network application delivers a requested service, by measuring the speed of individual application transactions.

This metric is calculated by utilizing a variation of the IPPM metric 'Type-P-Round-trip-Delay'. The total transaction time (dT) is determined by summing all the packet transactions of Type-P between the Src and Dst hosts. The bi-directional flight times are measured (as specified by the IPPM metric definition), but the server response time for each request is included in the measurement.

The derived metric is defined as the total number of tenths of seconds for the transaction between Src and Dst to complete.

Metric Parameters: Src, the network address of a host Dst, the network address of a host dT, a time interval

Metric Units: Tenths of seconds

Mapping of Type P: Type P refers to an application protocol encapsulation, identified by a specific protocolDirEntry, which is characterized as a transaction-oriented protocol.

Metric Type: delayMetric(2) Metric Dir Type: twoWay(2)
