Abstract(in English) In the Internet, because of huge scale and distributed administration, it is of practical importance to infer network-internal characteristics that cannot be measured directly. In this paper, we propose a general method of determining of characteristics(i.e. occurrence probabilities of states)of links from given characteristics of end-to-end paths. Our method can be applied to an arbitrary path-topology. Furthermore we show the general conditions that the link characteristics to be inferred must satisfy.Packet loss rate and queueing delay time distribution are shown to satisfy them. Case studies which our method can treat are also provided.
