ABSTRACT:
There is disclosed a method for determining the load to be induced on a network by running a routing verification test on the network. The method involves utilizing the telecommunications management network to sample through a general purpose management interface routing table information at live nodes in the operating network. The telecommunications management network subsequently determines the message tree between an operator selected source node and destination node and determines from this tree the number of transmitted, acknowledged and received messages that would be generated by conducting a routing verification test on the network. This method has the advantage that the operator is informed before running a verification test of the load that test will induce on the network. Thus the operator can run the test at his discretion to ensure that overload conditions are not experienced by running the test.
