Summary:A method for managing active measurements for determining performance parameters in a communication network comprises obtaining of a maximum permitted subsession duration and obtaining of time margins. The method further comprises determining whether or not a critical resource involved in the active measurement is active due to other activities than active measurements. If the determination concluded that the critical resource is active, a sending of an ensemble of packets of a subsession of an active measurement session is initiated. If there is an intended next subsession of the active measurement session and if a time since a last ensemble of packets was sent exceeds a sleep-init time comprised in the time margins, at least the determining and, if permitted, the initiating a sending of an ensemble of packets of the next subsession of the active measurement session is repeated.
