1. Overview #
Qosium Scope is the primary tool for carrying out manual measurements in the Qosium product family. It is a controlling entity, which means that it connects to Qosium Probes and uses them to do the measurement work. Scope then collects the measurement results and offers various ways to visualize, store, and process these results.
Qosium Scope is like any other desktop application. It doesn’t require any external hardware and can be run on a regular PC or laptop. With Scope, all features of Qosium measurements are at your fingertips.
Scope has two distinct measurement modes: Single-point measurement and two-point measurement . In single-point measurement, Scope uses one Probe to measure a single network node or point. In two-point measurement, Scope instead uses two Probes to measure a network path.
