Measuring Loss in an Internet network should involve measuring loss for all traffic on the network, not just test traffic.

QoSient Loss Measurement Technology is designed to do just that.

Packet loss can occur in a network for a large number of reasons: poor cabling and wiring, poor hardware and software implementations, inappropriate host configuration, component failure, limited network bandwidth and network congestion can each contribute to packet loss in your network. Being able to detect and measure packet loss for any user traffic on the network is the biggest hurdle in packet loss management. Being able to discover what is causing your packet loss, in most circumstances, is dependent on discovering where the packet loss is occurring.

QoSient technology can provide loss measurements for all traffic on the network. Through understanding the loss characteristics of real user traffic allows you to understand what the impacts of loss are on customer satisfaction.
