The whole purpose of the ADC is to monitor data and direct it to Real Servers configured to receive it. The compression feature is provided in the ADC to increase the ADC’s performance. There will be times when administrators will wish to test and check the ADC’s data compression information; this data provided by the Compression panel within Statistics.
Content Compression to Date
The data shown in this section details the level of compression achieved by the ADC on compressible content. A value of 60-80% is what we would term as typical
Overall Compression to Date
The values provided in this section report how much compression the ADC has achieved on all content. A typical percentage for this depends on how many pre-compressed images are contained in your services. The more the number of images, the smaller the overall compression percentage is likely to be.
Total Input/Output
The Total Input/Output figures represent the amount of raw data traversed into and out of the ADC. The unit of measurement will change as the size grows from kbps to Mbps to Gbps.
