This method retrieves transport details of a client.

Arguments

Argument Description Required?
App Name Name of the TIBCO FTL application (client) for which you want to collect transport metrics. No

Returns

Item Description
Client Label

When connecting to the FTL server, a client program can supply a label that denotes that particular client.

Unlike a client ID, which denotes a specific client process, this label remains unchanged even when the client restarts as a new process.

You can use this label to identify clients by their role within your enterprise.

Client ID

Client ID of the client process. The FTL server assigns each client process a unique client ID.

Transport Name Name of the transport
Bytes Sent Outbound data bytes on a transport in the client.
Bytes Received Inbound data bytes on a transport in the client.
Data Lost

Inbound data loss events on a transport in the client.

It is not possible to measure the magnitude of the events in bytes.

Format Unavailable

Messages with an unrecognized format carried on a transport in the client.

Packets Sent

Outbound data packets on a multicast or RUDP transport.

This counter includes all outbound data packets, including original data packets and retransmitted data packets.

Packets Received

Number of inbound data packets on a multicast or RUDP transport.

This counter includes all inbound data packets, including original data packets and retransmitted data packets.

Packets Retransmitted

Number of outbound packets retransmitted on a multicast or RUDP transport.

If the transport retransmits a packet several times, it increments this counter for each retransmission.

Packets Missed

Number of missed inbound packets on a multicast or RUDP transport.

Packets Lost Outbound

Number of outbound packets discarded on a multicast or RUDP transport.

Packets Lost Inbound

Number of inbound packets deemed lost on a multicast or RUDP transport.

The transport accounts a packet as lost after its reliability constraints expire.
