System and method for connection performance analysis

摘要

A system and method for connection performance analysis are provided. In one example, the method is for performing an end-to-end analysis of a connection coupling two service demarcation points in a network, where each of the service demarcation points includes a test traffic injector and a test traffic monitor. The example method includes injecting test traffic into the connection using the test traffic injector of one of the service demarcation points. A loopback of the test traffic received by the other service demarcation point via the connection is performed to return the traffic to the originating service demarcation point. The traffic received by the originating service demarcation point via the connection is monitored to identify the looped back test traffic.
