This document highlights the data collected by UXI agent

Updated over a week ago

The UXI Agent collects a variety of data points to help IT and network administrators monitor performance and troubleshoot issues effectively. Here's a breakdown of what data is sent to the cloud, how it's collected, and which specific metrics are captured during each test cycle.

What gets sent to the cloud

  • Network Metrics - information about the wireless network the device is connected to. The network should be defined and assigned to a group in the UXI dashboard

  • Device - information about the device like manufacturer, model, OS and resource utilization like CPU and memory

  • Test Data - synthetic test results towards a defined target host and collects metrics like loss, latency, jitter.

How are the metrics collected

  • The UXI agent runs approximately every 5 mins,

  • Each test cycle performs core test like AP scan, Internet connectivity, DNS resolution, followed by application test and

  • The agent also records the observed device metrics at the time of testing.

Application test supported on windows and macOS agent are ping, http get

Each Test Cycle collects the below metrics:
