Changing the Autotest Metrics

The FrameScope Pro provides a measure of service speed and
efficiency by emulating a client device in the network. A rating
of the service is provided by making a request for service to a
key device and comparing the results to reasonable
expectations. However, the default numbers used to determine
the rating may not apply to the network-under-test.

For example, you may know that the connection to the available
domain name server is over a slow link and this link cannot be
upgraded.

Consequently, it may be more important to have a test that is
less sensitive but provides meaningful results that can be
compared over time. The FrameScope Pro rating can be
changed. After you have run the test and received a result, such
as shown below on the left, you can highlight the server address
and press Details. The screen shown in the middle provides the
measured results of the test. If you double click on 1st Response,
you can change the rating scale to whatever values you choose
as shown on the right. This can be done for all rated
measurements.
