The values on the ESM tab report the bearer plane processing measurements in a MME Nodal Test Case.
In the default view, the Reports tab displays the Summary view, which summarizes the measurements for the test session. If your test includes multiple test cases, you can view the report for a single test case by changing the report view...
Unless otherwise noted, cumulative values report the number of occurrences or rates calculated since the start of the test, and per-interval values report the number of occurrences or rates calculated during the interval. You can view either by changing the measurement values...
Elapsed Time is the first measurement on every tab. It reports the amount of time between the start of the test and the end of the report interval.
Test Iteration reports the current iteration in a repeating test session. It is only displayed when a Number of Iterations is defined for the test session.

The following measurements record errors, by cause value, encountered during PDP context establishment, modification, and deactivation.
Cause - Operator Defined Bearer — The MN requested a service that the network operator or service provider does not allow.
Cause - Insufficient Resources — The sender cannot perform the requested context activation or modification due to insufficient resources. This cause value is also used by the MN when both the MN and the network request activation of the same context and the MN cannot determine whether the requests match, and by the network if the MN requested 0kbps uplink and downlink speeds.
Cause - Missing or Unknown APN — The service requested by the MN was rejected by the external PDN because the APN was required but missing or because the APN could not be resolved.
Cause - Unknown PDN Type — The service requested by the MN was rejected by the external PDN because the PDP address or address type could not be recognized.
Cause - User Auth Fail — The service requested by the MN was rejected by the external PDN due to a failed user authentication.
Cause - Request Rejected by SGW Or PGW — The service requested by the MN was rejected by the SGW or PGW.
Cause - Request Rejected Unspecified — The service requested by the MN was rejected due to unspecified reasons.
Cause - Service Opt Not Supported — The service requested by the MN is not supported in the PLMN.
Cause - Requested Service Opt Not Subscribed — The service requested by the MN is available in the PLMN but the MN does not have a subscription for the service.
Cause - Service Opt Temp Out Of Order — The MSC cannot service the request because one or more functions are temporarily unavailable.
Cause - PTI Already In Use — The NSAPI requested by the MN in a context activation was already used by another of the MN's active contexts.
Cause - Regular Deactivation — Used to indicate a regular UE or network initiated release of EPS bearer resources.
Cause - EPS Qos Not Accepted — The MN initiated a context deactivation because the network-mandated QOS received during context modification was not acceptable to the MN.
Cause - Network Fail — The context was deactivated due to an error situation in the network.
Cause - Reactivation Required — The network requested a context re-activation due to a GGSN restart.
Cause - Feature Not Supported — The MN could not support a PDP context activation initiated by the network.
Cause - Semantic Error In Tft Op — The secondary PDP context activation or modification request initiated by the MN contained a TFT semantic error, such as a TFT operation other than "create a new TFT" in an activation request.
Cause - Syntactical Error in Tft Op — The secondary PDP context activation or modification request initiated by the MN contained a TFT syntax error, such as an empty packet filter list in the TFT IE or the number of packet filters sub-field does not match the actual number of packet filters.
Cause - Invalid EPS Bearer Id — The EPS bearer identity value provided is not a valid value for the received message or the EPS bearer context identified by the linked EPS bearer identity IE in the request is not active.
Cause - Semantic Error in Packet Filter — The secondary PDP context activation or modification request initiated by the MN contained a packet filter semantic error, such as conflicting packet filter components that would render the packet filter ineffective since no packet could match the filter.
Cause - Syntactical Error in Packet Filter — The secondary PDP context activation or modification request initiated by the MN contained a packet filter syntax error, such as duplicate packet filter ID or precedence values, or more serious syntax errors such as using a reserved value for an ID. Duplicate values will not cause a reject for this context, the existing context with matching values will be deactivated.
Cause - EPS Bearer Context Without Tft — Used by the network or UE to indicate that it has already activated an EPS bearer context without Tft.
Cause - PTI Mismatch — Used by the UE to indicate that the PTI value which is included does not match a PTI in use.
Cause - Last PDN Disconnect Not Allowed — Used by the network to indicate that the UE requested PDN disconnection procedure on the last remaining PDN connection is not allowed.
Cause - PDN Type Ipv4 Only Allowed — Used by the network to indicate that only PDN type IPv4 is allowed for the requested PDN connectivity.
Cause - PDN Type Ipv6 Only Allowed — Used by the network to indicate that only PDN type IPv6 is allowed for the requested PDN connectivity.
Cause - Single Addr Bearer Only Allowed — Used by the network to indicate that the requested PDN connectivity is accepted with the restriction that only single IP version bearers are allowed.
Cause - Esm Info Not Received — Used by the network to indicate that the PDN connectivity procedure was rejected due to the ESM information not being received.
Cause - PDN Connection Does Not Exist — Used by the network at handover from a non-3GPP access network to indicate that the MME does not have any information about the requested PDN connection.
Cause - Mult PDN Connect For a given PDN Not Allowed — Used by the network to indicate that the PDN connectivity procedure was rejected due to multiple PDN connections for a given APN are not allowed.
Cause - Mult Collision With Net Init Req — Used by the network to indicate that the network has already initiated the activation, modification or deactivation of bearer resources which was requested by the UE.
Cause - Unsupported Qci Value — Used by the network if the QCI indicated in the UE request cannot be supported.
Cause - Bearer Handling Not Supported — Used by the network to indicate that the procedure requested by the UE was rejected because the bearer handling is not supported.
Cause - Max Num Of EPS Bearer Reached — Used by the network to indicate that the procedure requested by the UE was rejected as the network has reached the maximum number of simultaneously active EPS bearer contexts for the UE.
Cause - Req APN Not Supported In Cur Rat —Used by the network to indicate that the procedure requested by the UE was rejected as the requested APN is not supported in the current RAT and PLMN.
Cause - Invalid PTI Value — Used by the network or the UE to indicate that the PTI provided to it is unassigned or reserved.
Cause - Semantically Incorrect Msg — Received a message with semantically incorrect contents.

Cause - IE Non Existent Or Not Implemented — The SGSN received a message with an unidentified information element or with an information element that the SGSN does not support, but the information element is not required in order to correctly process the message.
Cause - Conditional IE Error — The SGSN received a message with a missing or unexpected conditional information element.
Cause - Msg Not Compatible With Protocol State — The SGSN received a message that was not compatible with the GMM state or received a Status message with an incompatible call state.
Cause - Protocol Error — A protocol event error occurred that could was not covered under another cause value.
Cause - APN Restriction Value Incompatible — Used by the network to indicate that the EPS bearer context (s) have an APN restriction value that is not allowed in combination with a currently active EPS bearer context.
