TmAnswerTimeAvg

Measurement Group: MP Performance

Measurement Type: Average

Measurement Dimension: Single

Description: Average time (in milliseconds) to process an Answer message. This is the time from when a Diameter Answer message is read from the ingress peer's SCTP/TCP socket until it is sent to the egress peer’s SCTP/TCP socket.
Note: This is the average cross-MP delay for answers during the measurement period excluding ethernet/IP stack ingress and egress processing time.

Collection Interval: 5 min

Peg Condition: Timing started when an ingress Answer message is read from the connection socket. Timing stopped when the matching egress Answer message is written to the connection socket. The difference between the two times is used to update the average.

Measurement Scope: Server Group

Recovery:

  1. If this measurement indicates an excessive average cross-MP delay, examine the DIAM KPIs to determine if the system is under excessive load.
  2. Examine the Peer Routing Rules to determine if there are an excessive number of rules.
