What is Network Response Time?
Network response time is the time taken by the packet to travel from the User to Receiver. When N/W (Network) Response time is high, performance can be impacted. As you might imagine it would make sense that an ISP that has poor internet connectivity could see their advertised download speed decline as they move between devices in their infrastructure on a consistent basis. While this happens naturally when connection speeds are not reliable and there are low upload/download links available at all times. This phenomenon only comes into play if such congestion exists prior. Theoretically, these changes cannot result without some sort (notably increased peak capacity) but due to the lower overall bandwidth requirements and other factors, I believe networks will continue adjusting slightly around them. Maintaining constant throughput per device connection may need tweaking depending on your application usage patterns.
Using Nmap to Calculate Network Response Time
Nmap stands for Network Mapper. It is a tool, primarily used for Port scanning, to check vulnerabilities, and of course, the main purpose – Network Mapping. Most popular Linux distributions give you full root access to their distribution by default but it’s easy to configure otherwise; only remember to always add Nmap as an interactive shell before your machine starts up (not just nmap ). You should never try this at home without doing some research first! Once installed simply run: sudo apt-get install nmap. This will perform various checks which usually means that there are no existing security issues in /etc/rc.local or all files listed below have been reviewed via scans performed manually prior launch process being known about.
