The Peer Optimization report summarizes the statistics tracked for each peer SteelHead. This report isolates measurements to a specific SteelHead peer or can show an aggregate of all peers.

You view the Peer Optimization report under Reports > Optimization: Peer Optimization.

These options are available to customize the report:

Specifies a report time interval of 5 minutes (5m), 1 hour (1h), 1 week (1w), All, or type a custom date. All includes statistics for the past 30 days. Time intervals that don’t apply to a particular report are dimmed. For a custom time interval, enter the start time and end time using this format:
yyyy/mm/dd hh:mm:ss

Selection can range from an individual peer to an aggregate of all peer SteelHeads. The available selections are composed from the individual peers that have statistics recorded.

After a system restart, the hostnames of connected peers may display as “Peer-nnn” for a short amount of time before the hostnames refresh.

Shows LAN and WAN measurements of connected peers.

Is the value computed during the inner channel TCP setup. It reflects the “ping” time of the inner channel at that time.

Is a derived value constructed to present a time based measurement reflecting how the data reduction provided by a SteelHead can translate into user time savings. The number divides the measured RTT by the data reduction factor, like so: ERTT = RTT * (WAN_Bytes/LAN_Bytes)
