perfSONAR User Q&A and Other Discussion

I have been a long-time complainer that "source" and "destination" don't make sense for bi-directional testing. It leads to a confusing display which is frustrating when shown to users.

Hello,

 

Does anyone know why tests are sometimes shown with the source and destination switched? For example, I created the test on host 1.1.1.1 to test to host 2.2.2.2 (hypothetical addresses). When I look at the results it shows 2.2.2.2 as the source. It’s a pain because when I try to show this to a user they always get confused by the source and destination switching.

 

 

Also, I notice that when a test has been removed it still will sometimes see the results of the test even though the test hasn’t been running for over a week and the test was deleted.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Thank you and have a great day!
