Warning
  • This feature is considered a tech preview feature, and is limited to 50 TPS at most. Do not enable this if transaction rate exceeds this limit.
  • Instead, please consider using Correlated Transactions Tab as a better alternative.


Extended Transactions, which are transactions that span more than one monitored service/domain/device, are being tracked in a non-intrusive way over HTTP protocol. This correlation is defined by means of a global transaction ID.

Examples of extended transactions include:

  • A DMZ DataPower gateway relays a request into the LAN internal DataPowergateway. The request transcends two machines and would have consists of two separate transactions.
    With the Extended Transaction, you can treat this operation as a single one.
  • An extended transaction may span domains inside a single DataPower machine gateway or across several machinesgateways.

The following information is available for each extended transaction:

ColumnDescription
