1. A method comprising:
identifying, by a first device in a first site of a multi-site network, a first local discriminator indicating a particular route path of multiple route paths usable to send data from the first device to a second device in a second site of the multi-site network;
identifying, by the first device, a first remote discriminator indicating the particular route path from the second device to the first device;
generating, by the first device, a first probe packet including the first local discriminator and the first remote discriminator;
utilizing the first local discriminator to send, from the first device, the first probe packet through the particular route path through the multi-site network to the second device;
receiving, at the first device and from the second device, a second probe packet including a second local discriminator associated with the particular route path and a second remote discriminator associated with the particular route path;
determining, by the first device, that the first local discriminator is equal to the second remote discriminator; and
identifying, at the first device and based at least in part on receiving the second probe packet, network performance information associated with the particular route path.
