Applies To

  • Call Quality Details
  • Analytics for 8x8 Work

Procedure

Call loss can be experienced evenly or in bursts. A burst indicates a sudden loss of data, creating a short period of poor quality. Follow the steps below to view the Burst Loss Density and Burst Gap Loss, values that indicate a sudden burst of packet loss. The closer the number is to the higher part of the recommended range (100 or 255) shows whether the packet loss was experienced in a burst, or was evenly distributed.

To view the Burst Loss Density and Burst Gap Loss

  1. Click + next to the Call Quality Detail report to get advanced details (EndPoint Voice Quality Report).
  2. View the Burst Loss Density (BLD). The recommended BLD range is as follows:
    • Desk Phones: 1 - 100 for desk phones such as Poly
    • 8x8 Work for Mobile, Desktop, or Web: 1 - 255
Note-Icon.png ​Example: If the Local.BurstGapLoss reads BLD: 99.6, this loss occurred in a burst, meaning that network packet loss has occurred during this call. Packet loss often occurs when you exceed your router's bandwidth.
