Adaptive network routing

Abstract:

A network device may determine, based on at least one network egress characteristic associated with a network device, a measure of priority associated with a network address. The network device may provide the measure of priority to a plurality of other routers, determine that a particular network egress characteristic of the at least one network egress characteristic has changed, and update the measure of priority based on the particular network egress characteristic. Based on the updated measure of priority, the network device may perform an action.
