Measures reported by LSLDMTest

The Lync Dialog Manager (LDM) service enables logging of Web Conferencing Server Connection Management which manages TLS/MTLS connections from clients and other servers such as the Web Conferencing Edge Server. The Lync Dialog Listener (LDL) module, when installed on every frontend server, tracks all INVITE/BYE-Commands and parses the SDP to find out the negotiated candidates. These commands/messages are sent to the Lync Dialog Manager (LDM) using a HTTP-PORST. This is another service, which has to be installed somewhere within your network. The LDM will then talk to a network management backend to deliver the information. Whenever large number of messages are delivered, it becomes tedious for the administrators to keep track of the messages moving to and from the LDM. This is where the LSLDMTest test helps!

This test monitors the LDM server and reports the number fo TCP connections that are active and the number of messages received by the server. Using this test administrators can easily figure out overload conditions of the server proactively before any serious performance issue is detected.

The measures made by this test are as follows:
