1. A method of evaluating routing performance within a switching network, comprising the steps of:

  • transmitting a set of media packets via the switching network with each of the media packets comprising information for defining a level of routing service selected from one or both of a routing priority or a drop precedence;

    receiving the set of media packets;

    determining received packets with communication problems;

    statically accumulating received packets with communication problems by level of routing service; and

    indicating routing problems upon higher level of routing service media packets with communication problems having a greater statistic occurrence than lower level of routing service media packets with communication problems.
