GSM GPRS EDGE UMTS Monitoring

Statistics
 

Statistical information is gathered for applications involving tests

  • over a longer period of time
  • for large data bandwidths
  • incorporating user-plane monitoring
  • in every case where huge amounts of data must be logged and analysed.

PRISMA offers a very powerful - yet very easy to use - solution, based on the widespread and reliable public application Tethereal, from the Ethereal family.

 

TEthereal Overview


A suite of graphical tools allows the user to access all applications and view the results with simple point and click operations.
The major advantage of this solution is the fact that both the full data stream and the statistical data can be processed and collected in real time by applications running on client computers. When any abnormal behaviour is detected through the synthetic view offered by statistical tool, the complete list of messages exchanged on the network can be analysed in detail.
This solution also allows call tracing and the generation of separate log files on a "per call" basis.

Graphical analysis window
 

KPIs can be generated through the configuration of appropriate Ethereal filters:

  • TEthereal: KPI report, double filtering, long duration test
  • KPI Viewer: statistics graphical display
  • Counter Viewer: message counter monitor, trend diagrams
