Further considerations

This section summarizes information about the latency measurement, sampling, volumetry, and data.

Latency measurement method

This diagram illustrate how do we calculate latency from the QoS-Agent.

Default sampling rates

Below are the default sampling rates. Refer to the Custom configurations section to learn how to modify them.

Note: Any modification to the configuration file of a running docker needs to be followed by a restart (stop, start) of the docker.

Protocol Sampling rate
TWAMP every 2 seconds
ICMP every 2 seconds
HTTP every 2 seconds
HTTPs every 2 seconds
TCP every 2 seconds
UDP every 2 seconds
TraceRoute every 15 minutes
PacketLoss every 5 seconds
Iperf3 every 2 hours
Lifbe every 1 hours

Volumetry

Table below presents data consumption with a heavy configuration:

Protocol Sampling Hourly consumption Daily consumption Montly consumption
TWAMP 30 / min 0.1 Mb 2.4 Mb 74.4 Mb
ICMP 30 / min 0.2 Mb 4.8 Mb 148.8 Mb
HTTP 30 / min 0.5 Mb 12 Mb 372 Mb
HTTPs 30 / min 0.6 Mb 14.4 Mb 446.4 Mb
TCP 30 / min 0.4 Mb 9.6 Mb 297.6 Mb
UDP 30 / min 0.4 Mb 9.6 Mb 297.6 Mb

Other protocols

Protocol Sampling Hourly consumption Daily consumption Montly consumption
TraceRoute 4 / hour 2.2 Kb 53 Kb 1.7 Mb
Iperf3 12 / day 83 Mb 2 Gb 62 Gb
Lifbe 24 / day 4.3 Mb 103.2 Mb 3.1 Gb
PacketLoss 12 / min 4.3 Mb 104.2 Mb 3.1 Gb
