Abstract:
1. A device comprising: an interface circuit configured to receive a first set of data from a network and transmit a second set of data via the network; a measurement circuit coupled to the interface circuit and configured to identify a first set of measurement information written to the first set of data which has already been provisioned for a current data session path to determine a quality of the network, wherein the measurement circuit is further configured to identify at least a portion of the first set of measurement information in a first time frame, and wherein at least a portion of the first set of data is received by the interface circuit in the first time frame; and provisioning circuitry coupled to the measurement circuit and configured to control a transmission of the second set of data based, at least in part, on the first set of measurement information, wherein the provisioning circuitry comprises circuitry configured to selectively enable the transmission of the second set of data via either a first data path or a second data path in the network based, at least in part, on the first set of measurement information.
