Flow status monitoring

When you start sending events, a graph displaying the current event stream (EPS) is generated.

Just like that, then you can also observe in the status bar

• EPS - Current flow of events
• AVG - Average EPS for the period
• Send - Number of events sent
• Module operating time
• Traffic - Estimated network load level based on the size of events sent

Additionally, double-clicking on the status bar will copy the current statistics to the clipboard.

Main interface

• EPS - number of events per second sent to the collector. The maximum value is 90000 events per second. If the value is set to 0, the maximum value of 90000 EPS is set.
• Timeout - Sends events for one second, within the specified EPS, then pauses for the specified time in seconds.
• Json - Generate event in Json format (for supported servers, e.g. OpenSearch)

Flow (Send Functions)

Normal	Sending the number of events specified in the EPS parameter
Raising	The option smoothly increases EPS . When EPS is reached, the cycle will start again.
Downgrade	The option of smoothly decreasing the EPS. If 0 is reached, the cycle will start again.
Random	Option to send a random number of events within the value specified in EPS

Flow step - Step up or step down events, used for Raising and Downgrade functions only.

Flow Timeout - Timeout for changing the event flow, in seconds. The time after which the event flow will change according to the settings. Used for Raising, Downgrade and Random functions.

Flow distribution (Send functions)

Normal	Uniform (sequential) distribution of events among recipients
Random	Random distribution of events among recipients

Stop time (sec) - time in seconds, after which the sending of events should stop.

Time to seconds conversion table

Example	Value in seconds
1 minute	60
5 minutes	300
10 minutes	600
30 minutes	1800
1 hour	3600
1 day	86400
2 days	172800
3 days	259200
7 days	604800

Template

Template - selection of data sending format (template).
