Abstract
The method comprises analyzing (203) probing packets sent on a plurality of end-to-end paths over links of the network. At least one analyzed probing packet is a timing packet comprising timing information for synchronization. The analyzing comprising analyzing probing packets sent on all of a set of probing paths. The set is selected (201) such that the analyzing provides a determination of a performance of each individual link. The method further comprises determining (204) the performance of individual links.
