Hi,

 

you can get your questions answered by using the "Help"-Tab of the configuration utility, while looking at the performance graphs:

 

TMM Server-side Throughput: This graph displays the server packets-per-second in and server packets-per-second out for the multi-bladed chassis or standalone system.

 

  • Server In: Reports the sum of all egress TMM and PVA server packets.
  • Server Out: Reports the sum of all ingress TMM and PVA server packets.

The reason why there are differences on the client and server side is potentially because not every request from the client needs a server side request. You're using DNS cache. So several answers may come directly from the cache instead of from the server. Therefore you will see differences on client and server side.
