Synthetic Monitoring
—The DEM-enabled GlobalProtect
apps and the cloud ADEM agents within Prisma Access use synthetic
tests to baseline end-to-end network quality metrics—latency, jitter,
and loss—for each segment from the end user to the monitored applications.
In addition, the ADEM agents and probes also use synthetic tests
to collect web performance metrics, which capture metrics about
the HTTP/HTTPS transactions to a specific application, including
application availability and uptime, HTTP latency, DNS lookup, SSL
connect, time-to-first-byte, and data transfer rate.
