A packet network system, such as an autonomous system, includes a plurality of packet network devices some of which are edge routers and some of which are core routers. Each of the edge and core routers include functionality that operates to receive network traffic, process the traffic as needed and to forward the traffic to its destination. Additionally, each router includes a traffic distribution function that operates to calculate path bandwidths for all of the paths over which the traffic can be forwarding through the system and to use the volume of traffic ingressing to the system, link utilization information and the calculated path bandwidth to redistribute the traffic in the system such that traffic loss in the system in minimized. |
