Abstract
In one embodiment, a method includes identifying, by a packet analyzer, one or more silence packets within a network and initiating, by the packet analyzer, a replacement of the one or more silence packets with one or more performance silence packets. The one or more performance silence packets are transmitted between a first node of the network and a second node of the network during a silence period. The method further includes receiving, by the packet analyzer, information associated with the one or more performance silence packets; and analyzing, by the packet analyzer, a connection between the first node of the network and the second node of the network using the information associated with the one or more performance silence packets.
