Measures reported by AWSEc2ConnTest
This test attempts to connect to the default region in the cloud; in the process, the test reports whether the configured AWS user account is able to access the cloud-based infrastructure or not, and if so, how quickly the connection with the infrastructure was established.
If a user is denied access to a server instance on a cloud, or if a user experiences a significant delay in connecting to his/her instances, you can use this test to validate the user credentials and to figure out whether any connectivity issues exist.

A value 0 indicates that the Region is Not Available and the value 100 indicates that the Region is Available. If the default region is inaccessible, it could be owing to any one of the following reasons:
- The cloud is unavailable;
- The configured AWS account does not have the access rights to the default region;
- The test has been configured with incorrect login credentials.
|
| Response_time |
Indicates the time taken by the test to establish a connection with the default region on the cloud.

A low value is desired for this measure. A high value or a consistent increase in this value could indicate connection bottlenecks. |
