Everyone knows that no one can agree on a system of metrics for
|
|
measuring general performance of the Internet. It's one of these
|
|
horrible religious issues that no matter how hard we try, we just
|
|
can't reach a happy middle ground.
|
|
|
|
The purpose of OpRoute is to attempt to establish a *generalized*
|
|
measurement system which takes into account all of the factors that
|
|
are usually considered to be important when it comes to performance.
|
|
Specifically:
|
|
|
|
- Packet Loss
|
|
- Latency
|
|
- Layer 3 Hops
|
|
- AS Hops
|
|
- NAP Hops
|
|
- Throughput
