CIFSNG/SMB Results Summaries

The CIFSNG/SMB Results Summaries include the CIFSNG/SMB session totals and transaction rates. A CIFSNG/SMB session consists of a simulated user accessing files on a CIFS server. Avalanche gains access to shared folders through authentication, downloads and uploads real files through Action list commands, and then terminates the session. You view these statistics in the client's summary.csv file.

Field Description
CIFSNG/SMB Total Attempted Sessions The total number of CIFSNG/SMB requests sent to the server.
CIFSNG/SMB Total Successful Sessions The total number of successful CIFSNG/SMB sessions. A session is considered successful if it was served in its entirety by the server.
CIFSNG/SMB Total Unsuccessful Sessions The total number of unsuccessful CIFSNG/SMB sessions. A session is unsuccessful for a variety of reasons, such as the file not existing on the server, the test finishing before the file was completely sent to the client, losing the file connection during the test, and so on.
CIFSNG/SMB Total Aborted Sessions The total number of CIFSNG/SMB sessions that were aborted by the client. A session is aborted when the client terminates the CIFSNG/SMB protocol conversation in accordance with the Abort parameter in the Client Profile.
CIFSNG/SMB Download Time (msec) The minimum, maximum, and average file download times in milliseconds.
CIFSNG/SMB Upload Time (msec) The minimum, maximum, and average file upload times in milliseconds.
CIFSNG/SMB Average Download Rate of File Data (Kbytes/sec) The average bandwidth for file downloads (in Kbytes/second).
CIFSNG/SMB Average Upload Rate of File Data (Kbytes/sec) The average bandwidth for file uploads (in Kbytes/second).
CIFSNG/SMB Number of NTLMv2 Per Sec

The number of sessions per second that used NTLMv2 as the authentication type.

CIFSNG/SMB Number of NTLM Per Sec The number of sessions per second that used NTLM as the authentication type.
CIFSNG/SMB Number of NTLMv2 Session Security Per Sec The number of sessions per second that used NTLMv2 Session Security as the authentication type.
SMB Number of Errors The number of SMB errors that occurred for each of the following types:
  • Authentication Errors
  • Extended Attributes Errors
  • File Handling Errors
  • General Errors
  • Invalid Entry Errors
  • Standard/Accepted Errors
