Abstract (en)
[origin: WO0120918A2] The performance of a client-server network is measured by passively monitoring a TCP packet stream between a client and a server during a communications session. The packet stream may be monitored by a device which is local to the client, by a device which is local to the server, or both. By measuring elapsed times between TCP messages associated with selected events or stages of the session, separate response times and other performance parameters are calculated for the network and for the server, including connect time, network latency, server response times, network bandwidth, and server bandwidth. Because the message stream is monitored at an application-independent protocol layer and without regard to application-dependent events or messages, the method is not limited to specific applications, and does not require advance knowledge of the type of application data requested by the client.
