§1The May Traffic Report
A. McKenzie of BBN-NET attaches the host traffic statistics for May 1973. The RFC updates RFC 509 and includes a table titled Host Throughput Summary (Packets Output).
This is a monthly statistics report, not a network protocol. It records packets output by each listed host.
§2The Host Throughput Table
For each host, the table lists internode packets sent to other nodes and intranode packets within a node, along with totals. Site subtotals include an average daily internode figure and the days represented.
Most entries cover the full month. The table marks some hosts as having no traffic.
Each row separates traffic that left a node from traffic that stayed within it. Site totals combine host rows and show the reporting period.
§3Totals and Daily Averages
The report provides overall totals for internode and intranode packets, daily averages, averages per node-day, and a packets-to-messages ratio for internode traffic.
These values summarize measured output during the period and do not prescribe host behavior.
The last rows add up the measurements and provide averages. They describe traffic during the month covered by the table.
