Abstract:
Router reported packet loss is the primary signal of when a network
is not doing its job. Some packet loss is normal or intended in TCP/
IP networks, however. To minimise network packet loss through
automated network operations we need clear and accurate signals of
all packets which are dropped and why. This document describes our
experience from implementing a packet loss classification scheme to
provide these signals and enable automated network mitigation of
unintended packet loss.
