Advanced CoT Logging tool produces incomplete logs for Data Package transfer

[LivelyECDSA]

Synopsis

Experimenting with the Advanced CoT Recorder tool and transfer of data packages produced an un-intuitive result from Advanced CoT Recorder tool.

Events and Outcomes

The behavior can be reproduced as follows, and assumes the Advanced CoT Recorder is enabled in the 'Metrics' toolset:

• Sender produces a data-package
• Sender transfers the data-package to the receiver and requests an ACK that it was transmitted
• Receiver gets the data-package and transmits an ACK message back to the sender
• Communication ends

Expected Outcome

The outcomes are un-intuitive because the sender doesn't record a cot message when the file is physically transmitted, only subsequent ACK from the receiver is recorded. Similarly, the receiver records a cot message indicating that the ACK request was received, but doesn't record the fact that receiver then transmits said ACK back to the sender.

Ask

Is this behavior expected? If not, can we get a bug fix that records all cot messages when a data package event occurs.
