ABSTRACT:
Methods and apparatus are provided for generating a set of restrictive costs associated with directional paths between selected nodes in a group of nodes of a network system wherein each node in the group is connected by a link to at least one other node in the group, and each link has a pair of directional costs associated therewith such that each link can be considered as a pair of oppositely-directed, unidirectional links each of which extends from a source node to a destination node and has a said directional cost associated therewith. The method allows asymmetric costs, rather than merely symmetric costs, to be considered, and can be applied, for example, to generate the transition matrix for a PNNI peer group.
