More Information
Summary:A packet measurement method includes obtaining, by a network device, reverse measurement indication information that is used to indicate a request to measure a reverse packet flow of a first packet flow, after receiving the first packet flow, adding, by the network device, the reverse measurement indication information to a packet in the first packet flow, and sending, by the network device, the packet that is in the first packet flow and that carries the reverse measurement indication information. By adding the reverse measuring indication information to the packet in the first packet flow, the method indicates a request to another network device on the packet forwarding path to measure the reverse packet flow of the first packet flow. Measurement on bidirectional packet flows is implemented through one measurement deployment.
