Abstract

See full text

A network management system can be configured to identify routes for satisfying a set of demands on a communications network using a network graph that represents the communication network. The network graph edges can have edge scores that indicate a priority of the edge. The edge score for a network edge corresponding to a communication link in the communication network can depend on the topology of the communication network or the characteristics of the communication link. The network management system can iteratively identify candidate path(s) on the network graph that correspond to each of the demands and determine a score for each candidate path using the edge scores. In each iteration, the network management system can select the lowest score candidate path, update the network graph to reflect the selection of this candidate path, update the edge scores based on the updating of the network graph, and update the candidate paths for the remaining demands as needed.
