The InterWorking Function (IWF) is a message converter between the SS7/MAP and Diameter networks, and as such the data measurements are provided for various throughput numbers between these networks.
The following figure shows an example of an IWF data measurements file.

The following table lists and describes the IWF data measurements.
IWF Data Measurements: Listing and Description
