When you know which applications are running within your environment, you can group devices by their associated applications.
The jitter and latency are the characteristics related to the flow in the application layer. Jitter and latency are the metrics used to assess the network's performance. The major distinction between jitter and latency is that latency is defined as a delay via the network, whereas jitter is defined as a change in the amount of latency. Increases in jitter and latency have a negative impact on network performance, therefore it's critical to monitor them regularly.
