Abstract
A processing system having at least one processor may obtain, from at least one probe packet, path measurements among pairs of host devices of a plurality of host devices in a packet network comprising a plurality of links, and compose a plurality of linear equations, each linear equation relating one of the path measurements between a respective pair of host devices to at least one link performance indicator for a corresponding one or more of the links in the packet network between the respective pair of host devices. The processing system may then determine a plurality of link performance indicators for the plurality of links via a solution to the plurality of linear equations, the plurality of link performance indicators including the at least one link performance indicators of each of the linear equations, and generate a report comprising at least one of the plurality of link performance indicators.
