Multi-Stream Analysis

6.3.Per-Stream Counts and Statistics
Once the filter has been configured, it is usually desirable to know how many matching
frames have been found for each filter and what are the matching traffic properties.
xGenius offers a complete set of statistics for each of the eight filtered streams,
including bandwidth and SLA metrics. To get general statistics about filtered frames
follow this procedure:
1. From the Home panel, go to RESULTS,
The test port results panel is displayed.
2. Select either Port A or Port B to enter in the port specific results.
3. Go to Filters
A table with dedicated information for each filter is displayed.
4. Check the Frames, Bytes and Traffic results.
Match code 16-bit code expressed with four hexadecimal digits used to
match frames.in the current filter.
Mask This is a mask for the generic filter match code. Before com-
paring the Match code with the selected bytes in the Ethernet
frame, bit wise AND operations are carried out between the
value configured here and the Match code field so that only
the values surviving the AND are taken into account for
matching the filter.
Table 6.8: General Filter statistics
Field Description
Frames Count of all frames matching the selection rule for the current
filter.
Bytes Byte count corresponding to the traffic stream associated
with the current filter. Note that only with the Frames and
Bytes results it is possible to compute new statistics like the
average frame size of the matching traffic.
