ABSTRACT:
A method for adaptive routing of messages in a computer network. The method provides adaptive source routing by generating at a source node a routing message describing a plurality of allowable paths via which data message can reach a desired destination. The data message and the routing message are sent by the source to a first switch, and the routing message is evaluated by control logic to determine if an available, allowable path exists. If so, the data message and routing message are sent via that path to the destination.
