Measures reported by FirewallServiceTest

The FirewallServiceTest measures the firewall protection of the ISA proxy server. The measures made by the test are as follows:

Measurement Description Measurement Unit Interpretation
Active_sessions The number of active sessions for the firewall service Number

Comparing this measure at both peak and off-peak times will provide you with valuable insight into the usage patterns of the ISA server.

Active_tcp_connections The number of active TCP connections transmitting data Number

 

Active_udp_connections The number of active UDP connections for the firewall service Number

 

Active_threads The number of firewall worker threads that are currently active Number

 

Read_rate The number of kilobytes read by the data-pump per second KB/Sec

A consistent decrease in the value of this measure may indicate a delay in servicing firewall requests.

Write_rate The number of kilobytes written by the data-pump per second KB/Sec

A consistent decrease in the value of this measure may indicate a delay in servicing firewall requests.
