Abstract:
1. A method comprising: receiving by a system: processing by the system: assigning by the system: determining, by the system, whether a link common to both the first plurality of links and the second plurality of links satisfies a range [x, y], wherein x and y are real numbers; obtaining, by the system, a third end-to-end measurement of a third path in the network that includes the link, wherein the third end-to-end measurement is obtained when the link fails to satisfy the range [x, y] after assigning the first value and the second value; grouping, by the system, the link into at least one of a first group and a second group based on the third end-to-end measurement satisfying the range [x, y]; and identifying, by the system, a network problem based on at least one of the first group and the second group.
