1. A method for analyzing routes to a destination address space, comprising:

  • identifying a plurality of paths, each path beginning at a different source and terminating at a destination address space;

    identifying a plurality of nodes for each of the plurality of paths;

    identifying at least one convergence point between at least two of the paths, wherein the convergence point is a common node for the at least two paths;

    associating the convergence point with the destination address space;

    determining a path performance for each of the at least two paths, wherein the path performance is based on a path performance from the source of each path to the convergence point; and

    analyzing the at least two paths to the destination address space.
