The DHCP Client report tab is available when a DHCP client is included in a nodal test case. It records the number of DHCP messages sent and received by the clients and any errors encountered during transactions with a server.
The WAN DHCP Client measurements in Wifi Offload Gateway Nodal test case when you select WAN DHCP Client on the AP/SSID tab.
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.
