Overview

The Metric Logs page in the Zequenze Control Portal provides a comprehensive view of all metric data collected from various devices and sensors in your fleet. This centralized logging system displays real-time and historical metric information, allowing administrators to monitor system performance, track data collection activities, and troubleshoot connectivity issues across their IoT infrastructure.

Key Features

  • Real-time Metric Monitoring: View live data streams from connected devices and sensors
  • Historical Data Access: Browse through timestamped metric logs with detailed filtering options
  • Multi-parameter Tracking: Monitor various data types including network router metrics, packageupgrade operations, and data transfer measurements
  • Advanced Filtering: Filter logs by date/time, element, location, profile, and other parameters
  • Data Export Capabilities: Export metric data for external analysis and reporting
  • Pagination Support: Navigate through large datasets efficiently with pagination controls

Device Integration

The system tracks metrics from VyOSvarious Innovationinfrastructure [VWAG]elements networkincluding:

devices,
primarilyUbuntu deployedLinux servers on Bare Metal infrastructure with various metric measurements across different timecloud intervals.platforms Nokia SF-05 routers Flatron servers ZTE networking equipment Various cloud-based instances (Amazon Web Services, Google Cloud)

Data Volumes

The system tracks data ranging from:

  • 0.0 Bytesvalues: Minimal or no data transfertransfer/upgrades
  • Large byte measurements: Including entries like 17,257,130,472.5,505.92 GB, 4,110,558,012.0 Bytes,packets, 17,121,622,525.05,483.45 Bytes, 17,256,857,815.0 Bytes, 17,121,358,726.0 Bytes, and 17,256,599,044.0 BytesGB
  • Most entriesUpgrade showingcounts: eitherNumerical minimalvalues (0.0indicating Bytes)pending orsystem substantial data transfer volumesupgrades

Temporal Data

  • All entries are timestamped with precise date and time information
  • Data spans multiple time periods for historical analysis
  • Recent entries from January 2, 20242026 are displayed with times rangingin fromthe early06:34-06:36 morning hours (05:22 to 05:12 timeframe)timeframe

Actions Available

Primary Actions

Notes/Tips

Performance Optimization

  • Use specific filters to reduce large dataset load times
  • Consider exporting data for complex analysis rather than processing in-browser
  • The default "Last hour" filter helps focus on recent activity

Data Interpretation

  • 0.0 Bytes Results: May indicate device connectivity issuesissues, scheduled downtime, or scheduledno downtimepending upgrades
  • Large Data Volumes: High byte counts may suggest heavy usage or potential data anomalies
  • ErrorPending BytesUpgrades: Non-zero errorupgrade bytescounts warrantindicate investigationsystems forrequiring network or device issuesattention

Best Practices

  • Regularly monitor errorupgrade metrics to maintain system healthcurrency
  • Use the organization filter when managing multi-tenant environments (Zequenze, izzi FTTH)
  • Export historical data periodically for long-term trend analysis and compliance reporting
  • Monitor both transmissionZTE (Tx)device metrics and receptiongeneral (Rx)network error metrics to identify directional communication issuesperformance
  • Track VyOScloud networkinfrastructure devicemetrics across Amazon Web Services and Google Cloud platforms
