Monitor elements

In addition to the test results common to all elements, the RPING monitor generates a set of test results containing data specific to RPING service tests.

Table 1 describes the additional elements for the RPING monitor.

Elements indicated by an asterisk (*) are available as workspace attributes. The names of the attributes are shown within brackets below the element. Absence of an asterisk indicates there is no equivalent workspace attribute. Attributes shown in brackets but without an element indicate that they are only available as workspace attributes, there is no equivalent element.
