Abstract
Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for monitoring traffic in a network include receiving, at an analytics platform connected to the network, one or more encapsulated packet headers from one or more network nodes of the network. From the one or more encapsulated packet headers, at least one or more source addresses of the one or more network nodes which transmitted the encapsulated packet headers, and one or more timestamps at which the one or more encapsulated packet headers were transmitted from the one or more network nodes may be determined. From at least the one or more source addresses and timestamps, network traffic information such as one or more of latency or jitter of data packets transiting through the one or more network nodes may be determined, wherein the one or more encapsulated packet headers may correspond to the data packets transiting through the one or more network nodes.
