MOS for applications

The mean opinion score (MOS) provides a numerical measure of the quality of the experience that an application delivers to end users. It is primarily used for VoIP applications. In Citrix SD-WAN, MOS is also used to assess the quality of non-VoIP applications by judging the traffic as if it were a VoIP call.

Citrix SD-WAN Center calculates and displays MOS for the traffic that passes through the virtual path. Enable the Estimate MOS option for each application on every Citrix SD-WAN appliance to display the MOS scores of these applications in Citrix SD-WAN Center.

For more information about enabling MOS for applications in Citrix SD-WAN, see Add Rule Groups and Enable MOS.

Note

Enable the Track Performance option, under Rules to estimate MOS for applications and display it in Citrix SD-WAN Center. For more information on rules, see Rules by IP address and port number.

To view MOS for applications:

In Citrix SD-WAN Center, navigating to Reporting > Applications, and in the timeline control select a time period.

You can select and view reports of a particular time frame by using the timeline controls. For more information, see, Timeline controls.

You can also create, save and open report views. For more information, see, Manage views.
