is passive mode categorized as local or remote mode?

I discovered that after the passive mode test(not RDSH) is completed, the report with local latency data mode will be generated by default.

if i use commands to generate remote report for this passive mode test, the content will be all blank.

since the passive mode test required (fewer) client desktops to perform test, should the "passive mode" be classified as one of the remote mode and the test report's latency data mode be remote by default?

thanks
