Adaptive oscillation control for network paths using machine learning

Abstract:

In one embodiment, a device generates a model of oscillations between a particular path in a network satisfying a service level agreement template of traffic conveyed via the particular path and the particular path in the network not satisfying the service level agreement template. The device causes the traffic to be rerouted onto the particular path, based on a prediction by the model that the particular path will not oscillate for a period of time. The device determines, using the model, an adjustment to the service level agreement template that would reduce the oscillations. The device provides, to a user interface, an indication of the adjustment to the service level agreement template.
