Claim One:
1. A method comprising: identifying, on a network analysis machine, a set of source-destination pairs of a modeled network, creating, on the network analysis machine, a plurality of test packets, each test packet corresponding to a source-destination pair of the set of source-destination pairs, simulating, on the network analysis machine, propagation of each test packet from source to destination of the corresponding source-destination pair to determine a fault-free routing path, identifying, on the network analysis machine, a set of fault conditions to model on the modeled network, simulating, on the network analysis machine, each fault condition to determine if any new paths for the set of source-destination pairs is caused by the fault condition, determining, on the network analysis machine, one or more performance measures corresponding to each new path, and providing, on the network analysis machine, one or more reports based on the performance measures of the new paths.
