Wiser performance metrics

The current stats are good enough for most cases as usually telegrams contain not more than 2 bytes of data. What is the point of 100% bus load statistics?

Well in my opinion you should not have this at all, if you continuously need to monitor the busload like this it means you are always on the limit of the bandwidth…

In my honest opinion the busload only needs to be checked when issues might surface after initial deployment and a short monitoring should tell you where it goes wrong, if you need to monitor full time your (TP) architecture needs to be changed if you ask me..

Anyway that is my 50ct..

I compare this to the IP networking - just as we have interface statistics, which we don't normally use (other than bandwidth bragging rights) - they are still there in any responsible network monitoring operation, for the off-chance that when a problem does arise, and it can be spotted using these statistics - it will be possible to look into the data.

I reckon similar logic applies to TP load.

Having said that - even if this is useful only for the deployment phase - it should still be displaying the correct bus load - for that relevant phase, don't you think?

Now it's displaying (for me) 11% more than it should because it's miscounting KNX IP packets for TP - maybe in other environments it'll be 30% more - I would say it's misleading at best.
