Statistics Stream

The statistics features are based on the concept of a statistics stream, described in DN-0449, Documentation, Napatech Software Suite Documentation, Main Features, Statistics.

The API is described in detail in DN-0449, Documentation, Napatech Software Suite Documentation, Streams, Statistics Stream.

Code examples

Two statistics code examples are included in DN-0449.

streamidstatistics_example.c shows the procedure needed to get stream ID statistics that can be correlated with what the application receives.

stat_example.c is an example on how to use the statistics stream interface in the API.

Tools

The monitoring tool is described in DN-0449, Documentation, Tools, monitoring.

The monitoring tool is an interactive tool used to monitor various states, events and statistics:

  • Port statistics
  • Sensor monitoring
  • Color statistics
  • Time synchronization
  • IEEE 1588 PTP
  • Stream statistics
