Cisco Systems OL-11291-01 Manual De Usuario

The FTP operation measures the round-trip latency time required to connect to and access data from an 
FTP server. The FTP transaction time server response shows the round-trip latency in sending a request 
to, and downloading the file from the FTP server.

The FTP operation also measures availability and errors for FTP services.

To measure end-to-end performance for FTP:

Define a device as the source device from which to measure performance. For details on defining a 
source device, see 

To control how statistics are collected, define your own FTP operation. For details on defining an FTP 
operation, see

Define a collector to measure performance between the source device and the FTP servers. 

For details on defining a collector, see 

. If you set the collector’s schedule to On 

Demand, start the collector when needed.

View the statistics in the FTP Historical Statistics window.
