Abstract

Methods and apparatus to process call packets collected in a communications network are disclosed. An example method includes, responsive to a query about a voice call, performing a first search of extracted data using a first set of search terms to identify a first record. The extracted data is extracted from packets captured at network nodes and include control information and voice data. A second search of the same extracted data is performed using a second set of search terms including information contained in the first record. The second search is to identify a second record by determining that first metadata of the first record matches second metadata of the second record. Further, a first packet corresponding to the first record, a second packet corresponding to the second record, and a third packet including voice data corresponding to the voice call are returned in response to the user query.
