Diameter NAS Accounting Measurements


The values on the Diameter NAS Acct tab report the processing measurements for accounting transactions when the Diameter protocol is used in a AAA Server Nodal test case.

Measurement Values

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.

Message Counters

The following measurements record the number and types of accounting and session management messages sent by the NAS node and received from all AAA SUTs. The total number of requests and answers are reported as well as requests and answers by type.

Error Counters

The following measurements report the number of transaction failures by cause, including errors returned from a SUT by Result Code.

NOTE: If a timeout occurs when the Wait Response Time expires no attempt is made to re-transmit the request.
