Hi Faisal,

Let me comment a bit on the loss at software - packages can be discarded at TCP/IP stack level (by kernel) if no application is reading the data (or no reading as fast as the data comes).

You can check on this (if opensips is able to process all incoming traffic, without having the kernel to discard data because of full buffering on sockets) via some statistics from the NET class :
        http://www.opensips.org/Resources/DocsCoreStats17#toc17

An overall idea over the load in opensips (if you have idle processes or not) can be monitored via the LOAD stats:

Bogdan

Hi Everyone,

I am facing huge packet loss in my server, so I am here to share with you some of the output of packets losses that you can see in attached image. Secondly I have few questions that I want to discuss with:

1. How can we reduce the packet loss to a minimum in an asterisk server, I mean I just want to know more detailed info about packet loss reduction. 2. I am calculating packet loss following that link http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/9398 where there is written that 20% loss is acceptable, but if you see the attached image what will be your conclusions about packet loss here? 3. At last but not least I just want to know the responsibilities of the software & the network, I mean how much software or network is responsible for packet loss? 4. What are the best possible ways to reduce the packet loss to a minimum extent?

Regards,

Faisal Rehman
