US Patent 12003396 Asymmetry compensation for private line emulation

In one example, an indication of a time during which a network communication obtained from a first network node was processed by the first network node, and an indication of a propagation delay from a second network node to the first network node, are obtained. A time during which the network communication was processed by the second network node is determined. A propagation delay from the first network node to the second network node is calculated based on the time during which the network communication was processed by the first network node and the time during which the network communication was processed by the second network node. A difference between the propagation delay from the first network node to the second network node, and the propagation delay from the second network node to the first network node, is determined and compensated is made for that difference.
