Patent attributes
Disclosed herein are techniques for measuring inter-domain handoff performance between network devices in different network domains. A peer-based handoff performance measurement process may include generating test data to be transmitted from a first edge device of a first network domain over an interface to a second edge device of a second network domain, the test data having an identifier (ID) to indicate that the test data is to be used for measuring handoff performance over the interface. The first edge device may add a start time to the test data indicating a start of a measurement instance using the test data, transmit the test data to the second edge device over the interface, receive the test data with a receive time added by the second edge device, and store at least the start time and the receive time as handoff performance data.
