Description: The directional characteristics of the this metric.
The value 'oneWay(1)' indicates that this metric is measured with some sort of uni-directional test.
The value 'twoWay(2)' indicates that this metric is measured with some sort of bi-directional test.
The value 'multiWay(3)' indicates that this metric is measured with some combination of uni-directional and/or bi- directional tests.
What is pmMetricDirType?
Reports the directional characteristic of the test underlying this performance metric: one-way, two-way (round-trip), or some combination of both (multi-way). Admins use it to understand what kind of test methodology produced a given metric, which matters for interpreting results like delay correctly. A metric marked twoWay(2) indicates the reported value reflects a round-trip measurement rather than a one-directional test.
