Visits IP Address VS. Web Requests Client IP
What is the difference between the measures:
UEM > BT > Visits - IP Address
And
Server Side Performance > Transaction > BT > Web Request - Client IP
I am trying to find out how often my site is accessed by a specific IP Address.
What are the differences between these measures?
Which of these measures is better for this situation?
Thanks,
Eric
The difference is that the Server-Side Performance measure will deliver the IP Address for every Server-Side Web Request - allowing you to use this measure for Server-Side, Page-Action and Visit-based Business transactions.
The Visit-based IP-Adress is a measure that delivers the IPAdress assigned to one Visit - therefore you can only use it for Visit-Based Business Transactions
It really depends on what you want to do with this measure. If you want to analyze Web Requests from a specific IP I would almost suggest to create a Server-Side Business Transaction that uses the Server-Side Client-IP Measure as a Filter Measure. You can configure it in a way to match the IP Address you are looking for. with that your Business transaction will show you those Web Requests that come in from that particular IP
Hope this makes sense
