Abstract
The embodiments herein relate to a method in a first network node (105) for measuring processing power in a second network node (103) in a communications network (100). The first network node (105) obtains a signaling load value associated with a procedure, which procedure is triggered by a message. Based on the obtained signaling load value, the first network node (105) measures the processing power of the second network node (103).
Claims28
A method in a first network node (105) for measuring processing power in a second network node (103) in a communications network (100), the method comprising:
- obtaining (205, 504) a signaling load value associated with a procedure, which procedure is triggered by a message;
- and
- measuring (208, 511) the processing power of the second network node (103) based on the obtained signaling load value.
A first network node (105) for measuring processing power in a second network node (103) in a communications network (100), the first network node (105) comprising:
- an obtaining unit (601) configured to obtain a signaling load value associated with a procedure, which procedure is triggered by a message;
- and
- a measuring unit (603) configured to measure the processing power of the second network node (103) in the communications network (100) based on the obtained signaling load value.
