Deep Packet Inspection for Quality of Experience Monitoring
The IT industry is increasingly recognizing and leveraging the value and utility of packet-level analysis – also called Deep Packet Inspection or just Packet Analysis – for quickly and accurately identifying the true source and nature of network and application reliability and performance problems.
Packet analysis involves ‘capturing’ (making a copy of) and inspecting the network packets which flow between Client and Server devices. This is typically accomplished by utilizing a tool commonly referred to as a ‘Sniffer’, which was the name of one of the first industry standard tools designed for this purpose.
In this paper, you’ll get a detailed description of packet analysis techniques to measure high network response times, network delay, server processing times, client processing time, traffic distribution, and overall quality of experience.
