Abstract

A method and apparatus for path detection are disclosed. In the method and apparatus, a data path may link two path-end nodes in a network. Event data for the network may be received and may be used to determine, for each node resident on the path, proximity measures to each path-end node. The proximity measure of network nodes may be evaluated to determine whether a path exists between the two path-end nodes.
