Hi there,

  • It will also be possible to measure the packet loss using a Ping Sensor. By default, PRTG sends 5 pings with a delay of 5 ms.
  • If you have an IP-SLA enabled Cisco device, you can use the Cisco IP SLA Sensor to measure the Number of lost packets and in percent.
  • You can also use the native Quality of Service Sensors.

Best regards, Felix
