Abstract:
A method of sending a packet from a source node to a destination node in the same broadcast domain. The packet is associated with a traffic flow directed from the source node to the destination node. The source node is connected with the destination node via a first and a second communication path. A criterion based on an attribute of the traffic flow is measured for each of the communication paths. One path is selected between the first and second communication paths based on the measured criterion and the selected communication path is assigned to the associated traffic flow. The packet is then sent via the selected communication path.
