Abstract

See full text

In one embodiment, one or more tunnel mesh groups may be established in at least a portion of a computer network, where each tunnel mesh group corresponds to a differentiated routing profile. Traffic may then be received at the portion of the computer network, the traffic indicating a particular differentiated routing profile (e.g., based on a received label corresponding to the differentiated routing profile as advertised by the portion of the computer network). Accordingly, the traffic may be routed through the portion of the computer network along a tunnel of a particular tunnel mesh group corresponding to the particular differentiated routing profile traffic.
