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:
Metrics | Windows and macOS |
Network Metrics | Signal Strength (RSSI) Transmit Bitrate SSID BSSID Band Channel DNS lookup time AP scan - Scanned near by APs |
Application Metrics | Packet Loss, Latency, Jitter, Http get (elapsed time) |
Device Data | MAC Address IP Adress IP Config Gateway Address Primary and Secondary DNS Address Phy Mode Manufacturer Model OS Type and version CPU Memory Wi-Fi driver version CPU and Memory Utilization Device Temperature Battery Level Location (only for macOS, might be collected for windows in later versions) |
