From my provider days if you miss data you can't bill it or assume zero.

I can say that missing samples weren’t back filled when we billed. Never

Can anyone shed light on how ISPs handle missing samples when calculating
p95s for monthly billing cycles? Do they fill null samples with zeros or
leave them as null?

I’m working on a billing sanity tool and want to make sure to cover my
corner cases well.

Thanks!
