Abstract

See full text

In general, this disclosure describes techniques of selecting routes for network packets through a computer network based, at least in part, on electrical power procurement arrangements of devices in the computer network. A computing system includes a hardware processor and a database storing power procurement profiles. Each of the power procurement profiles stores data indicating an arrangement between an operator of one or more of routing devices to procure electrical power from a utility company for facilities in which the routing devices are located. The power procurement profiles are mapped to ranges of network addresses associated with the facilities for retrieval of the power procurement profiles for the routers based on the network addresses assigned to the routers.
