Throttled Requests / Sec The number of throttled requests per second.

Failed Requests / Sec The number of failed requests per second.

The time to process the request that is, the time

to evaluate all the rules and determine a routing

target.

Last Ping Latency

Connection Endpoints CurrentThe total number of endpoints that are

connected for all active connections.
