A host is considered unreachable if none of the pings sent to it are responded to. To illustrate this we chose a reliable host at SLAC (pinger.slac.stanford.edu) and analyzed the unreachability of Pakistani hosts seen from SLAC.

Table of unreachability seen from SLAC to Pakistani hosts in 2010. Higher values (bad) are colored redder. The data is sorted by increasing unreachability in Jan 2011. [Spreadsheet | IEPM:Pakistan^pak-unreach.xlsx] |
RTT and Losses for 2010
| | | |
The average of the minimum RTT measured between regions of Pakistan between Dec-2009 and November 2010. Spreadsheet | Various percentiles for the Inter Packet Delay Variation (IPDV or jitter) between Pakistani monitoring hosts and remote host pairs. The line shows the number of pairs with measurements contributing to the results. Spreadsheet | The blue dots are the median losses seen between all pairs of monitoring and remote hosts for each month. The error bars show the extent of the 25 and 75 percentiles. The red dots are the number of pairs contributing to the packet loss measurements. Spreadsheet |

The minimum RTT to Peshawar and to Islamabad (left hand graph) appears to have reduced dramatically after April 2010. This is partially due to bringing on new hosts that have lower RTT between them. In April there was a factor of 2 increase in the number of host pairs (this is seen in the middle and right hand graphs).To try and show the network performance trends within Pakistan in 2010 Amber created a graph showing the inter-regional average RTT performance over the whole year.
