Group - Performance: Ping Response Time

This group performance report displays ping response time data collected during the selected period from the device group displayed at the top of the report. This is the amount of time it takes a packet to be returned from the device after an ICMP (Internet Control Message Protocol) poll.

Report Body

Below the list of devices in the current group, the Summary table shows the average response time for all interfaces in the group.

• Device. The device the ping monitor is active on.
• Interface. The specific interface the ping monitor is active on.
• Min response time (ms). The minimum ping response time (in milliseconds) experienced for the device during the selected time period
• Max response time (ms). The maximum ping response time (in milliseconds) experienced for the device during the selected time period.
• Avg response time (ms). The average ping response time (in milliseconds) experienced for the device across all sample data for this time period.

Split Second Graphs

To see a real-time graph for a device's ping response time, hover over device's interface in the Interface column.

Below the report body is a summary of the above information:

• # of Interfaces. The number of monitored interfaces.
• Min Response Time. The minimum response time from the monitored interfaces over the selected time period.
• Max Response Time. The maximum response time from the monitored interfaces over the selected time period.
• Avg Response Time. The average response time from the monitored interfaces over the selected time period.

Note: Values displayed in the table are the average values for the selected time period. Values displayed in the summary are the minimum, maximum, and average values for the selected time period. If raw polling data has been averaged into hourly or daily summarized data, the values for min and average, or maximum and average can be different. In some cases, they may be very different if there was a period of time when polled values were much higher or lower than normal.
