Abstract:
The method of some embodiments selects a set of links to forward packets of a data flow from an application running on a machine connected to an SD-WAN that has multiple exits. The method, based on computed sets of attributes for a first set of links and a second set of links, selects between the first set of links and the second set of links. At least the first set of links has multiple links and at least one attribute of the first set of links is an attribute that is computed by aggregating an attribute of each of the links in the first set of links. The method uses the selected set of links to forward the packets of the data flow of the application to an egress managed forwarding element of the SD-WAN.
