## Describe your changes `recordConnectionMetrics` mapped only `conntype.Relay` to `relay` and let a `default` branch record everything else as `ice`. That silently included `ICETurn` — an ICE connection through a TURN server, which [`conn.isRelayed`](https://github.com/netbirdio/netbird/blob/main/client/internal/peer/conn.go#L788-L795) itself counts as relayed — and `None`, the transient state set when the relay drops ([conn.go:632](https://github.com/netbirdio/netbird/blob/main/client/internal/peer/conn.go#L632)) or the peer state is reset ([conn.go:757](https://github.com/netbirdio/netbird/blob/main/client/internal/peer/conn.go#L757)). Both were reported as direct peer-to-peer, so the `ice` share overstated direct connections on every platform. The mapping now lists every priority explicitly and emits `ice_p2p`, `ice_turn`, `relay` or `unknown`. The new values deliberately do not reuse `ice` to avoid ambuguity. ## Issue ticket number and link No public issue. Found while reviewing the first production sample of client metrics: 38% of iOS connection events were tagged `ice` on a platform that forces relay by default, which traced back to the `default` branch at [client/internal/peer/conn.go#L963-L968](https://github.com/netbirdio/netbird/blob/main/client/internal/peer/conn.go#L963-L968). ## Stack <!-- branch-stack --> ### Checklist - [x] Is it a bug fix - [ ] Is a typo/documentation fix - [ ] Is a feature enhancement - [ ] It is a refactor - [x] Created tests that fail without the change (if possible) > By submitting this pull request, you confirm that you have read and agree to the terms of the [Contributor License Agreement](https://github.com/netbirdio/netbird/blob/main/CONTRIBUTOR_LICENSE_AGREEMENT.md). ## Documentation Select exactly one: - [] I added/updated documentation for this change - [x] Documentation is **not needed** for this change (explain why) Internal metrics documentation only, in `client/internal/metrics/infra/README.md`: the four `connection_type` values with their derivation, and a note that pre-fix `ice` samples are not comparable with `ice_p2p`. No public API, CLI or configuration change, so no netbirdio/docs PR. ### Docs PR URL (required if "docs added" is checked) Paste the PR link from https://github.com/netbirdio/docs here: N/A <!-- This is an auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> ## Summary by CodeRabbit ## Summary by CodeRabbit * **New Features** * Connection metrics now distinguish direct peer-to-peer, TURN-assisted, relay, and unknown connection types. * Metrics include clearer connection and peer identification details. * **Documentation** * Updated connection timing metric values, traffic semantics, priority behavior, and historical data guidance. * **Bug Fixes** * Unset or unrecognized connection priorities are no longer incorrectly classified as peer-to-peer. * Unknown-transport metrics are skipped to prevent misleading connection data. <!-- end of auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai -->
