Although the hammock networks were introduced more than sixty years ago, there is no general formula of the associated reliability polynomial. Using the full Hermite interpolation polynomial, we propose an approximation for the reliability polynomial of a hammock network of arbitrary size. In the second part of the paper, we provide combinatorial formulas for the first two non-zero coefficients of the reliability polynomial.
