Total Resend Rate: The total packet resend rate as a percentage since the last counter reset.
Current Packets Sent: The total number of multicast packets sent during the current or most
recent multicast file transfer.
Current Packets Resent: The total number of multicast packets resent due to errors,
corruption, or loss during the current or most recent multicast file transfer.
Current Resend Rate: The packet resend rate as a percentage of packets sent since the start of
the current or most recent multicast file transfer.
Current File Size: The file size in bytes for the current or most recent multicast file transfer.
Current Bytes Sent: The number of bytes sent so far in the current or most recent multicast
file transfer.
Current Percent Complete: The completion percentage of the current or most recent
multicast file transfer.
Skipped (Sparse) Bytes: The umber of bytes skipped because of long runs of zeros. These
"holes" are skipped in order to reduce file transfer time for large sparse files like VM images.
Current Receiver Count: The number of recipient agents for the current or most recent
multicast file transfer.
Current File Name: The name of the file transferred in the current or most recent multicast
file transfer.
The data list includes a check box that is selected if the current multicast transfer is finished. It also
includes a Reset Stats button that you can select to clear the total metrics in order to begin
monitoring multicast statistics from a new point in time.
Security/TLS Configuration
This section lets you configure TLS (or SSL) data encryption for both user and agent connections.
There are four different levels of encryption that may be set for both users and nodes. These are
described below. The properties in this section also let the TCP/IP socket listener address and port
for TLS connections to be configured.
TLS On Agent: This setting allows the encryption level to be set to one of four values, as described
(in order of security level) below.
Forbid TLS for agents
Only unencrypted connections are allowed for nodes (that is, agents) authenticating to this
server. If the agent attempts to initiate encrypted communication, the connection attempt is
rejected. This is the least secure of the encryption levels and is only recommended for
installations where encryption is forbidden due to legal or policy restrictions, or where the
performance benefits of disabling encryption outweigh security concerns.
Allow TLS on the agents; default to falling back to unencrypted
This level specifies that the server defaults to unencrypted communication, but that the agent
can optionally enable encryption.
This is the default setting for the Orchestrate Server. More secure installations might require a
setting to one of the higher levels below.
Allow TLS on the agents; default to TLS encrypted if not configured
encrypted
The server defaults to using encryption, but the agent can optionally disable encryption.
