Abstract
An apparatus and method for the monitoring of performance metrics at links located within the communication network. A method may include discovering multiple paths across a plurality of nodes in a network between a user equipment and an endpoint. The method may also include deriving at the user equipment performance metrics of an edge located between two of the plurality of nodes. The performance metrics is derived based on performance of the two nodes bordering the edge. The two nodes are located within one of the multiple paths.
