Claim 0:
1. A first network node comprising one or more processors and one or more computer-readable non-transitory storage media coupled to the one or more processors and including instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the first network node to perform operations comprising:
configuring a first application probe class and a second application probe class, wherein the first application probe class is associated with a first Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP) and the second application probe class is associated with a second DSCP;
determining an adaptive Forward Error Correction (FEC) data policy for the first application probe class and the second application probe class;
calculating a first loss value associated with the first application probe class for a link between the first network node and a second network node;
comparing the first loss value to a first loss threshold; and
determining whether to activate FEC processing for the first application probe class in response to comparing the first loss value to the first loss threshold.
