Duplicate packet monitoring & troubleshooting with pre-configured sensors
To meet the needs of different infrastructures, PRTG offers more than 250 preconfigured sensor types out-of-the-box. Discover our two dedicated Quality of Service sensors that you can use for duplicate packets monitoring:
QoS (Quality of Service) Round Trip
The QoS (Quality of Service) Round Trip sensor monitors parameters related to the quality of a network connection between two probes. With its dedicated duplicate packet channel, the percentage of duplicate packets can be quickly and easily determined. The sensor also has other useful channels, such as corrupted packets and lost packets.
QoS (Quality of Service) One Way
Using a series of UDP packets between two probes, the QoS (Quality of Service) One Way sensor can measure several parameters. In addition to the dedicated channel for monitoring duplicate packets, you can use it to determine the time between two packets or check for delays between sending packets.
PRTG is compatible with all major vendors, products, and systems

Monitor duplicate packets: FAQ
What are duplicate packets and how do they affect my network?
Duplicate packets are copies of data packets that exist and travel unnecessarily within a network, causing problems such as increased latency or reduced bandwidth. They can disrupt normal operations and slow your network speed, resulting in quality-of-service issues for applications like VoIP or video conferencing.
How can I detect duplicate packets in my network traffic?
You can detect duplicate packets by monitoring your network traffic and using monitoring solutions such as PRTG. These applications can analyze the packet flow and QoS parameters between hosts and network devices to identify patterns and anomalies that may indicate a duplication problem.
What issues do duplicate packets cause in a network?
Duplicate packets can cause several issues in a network, including:
- Network congestion: Duplicate packets take up valuable bandwidth, leading to congestion and therefore slower data transmissions.
- VoIP and video conferencing quality loss: Real-time communications are directly affected by duplicate packets or packet loss. The result – high latency and dropped calls.
- Overloaded network infrastructure: Excessive data processing requests put a strain on network resources and degrade the overall performance of your network.
What should I do if I detect duplicate packets?
Once you have identified duplicate packets, you should analyze your network configurations for errors, check your network devices for faulty hardware, and review traffic logs to determine the cause.
How can PRTG help me monitor and prevent duplicate packets?
PRTG provides real-time traffic analysis and customizable alerts to help you quickly identify duplicate packets. PRTG's multiple deployment and configuration options help you understand traffic patterns and enable you to make proactive adjustments to prevent future duplicates.
What is a sensor in PRTG?
In PRTG, “sensors” are the basic monitoring elements. One sensor usually monitors one measured value in your network, for example the traffic of a switch port, the CPU load of a server, or the free space on a disk drive.
On average, you need about 5-10 sensors per device or one sensor per switch port.
