ABSTRACT:
Links in a network are switched between nodes in response to traffic and failure status of network links as follows. A total message time is calculated for a given network configuration. Nodes are identified having the most and the least messages. A new network configuration is considered, wherein a link from the minimum traffic nodes is reconfigured to the maximum traffic nodes. A maximum link and/or maximum connectivity rule are evaluated for the possible new configuration. If such a rule is not violated and the total message time is improved by the new configuration, the analysis is repeated for possible third, fourth, etc. configurations.
