Analysis and evaluation of urban infrastructures treatment is of vital importance in natural disasters management. Among them, performance analysis of communication network, due to the extensive role in the cycle of crisis management and especially in relief stage, can have an important influence on the identification of vulnerable areas. Moreover, it results in faster relief and thus reduces the casualty. Accordingly, this paper addresses the classification of the performance of communication network in Khaksefid area (as one of the erosion texture neighborhoods with spontaneous origin) during and after earthquake through identification of vulnerability criteria of communication network in the local scale and analysis of them in that neighborhood and thus vulnerable areas are identified. The results show that in the study area, some of the roads have higher degree of vulnerability, and they will have very low efficiency at time of crisis and after. Therefore, it is necessary to use another road for relief in these cases.
