Abstract:
A method for enhanced mesh networking, preferably including performing network analysis, configuring router link parameters, and managing routing paths. A metric for routing path assessment, preferably including a throughput metric and a channel utilization metric. A Segment Table Announced Mesh Protocol, preferably including determining network segments and designating forwarding devices for communication between the network segments.

Claim (Index 9):
A method for network device communication, the method comprising, in a mesh network comprising a first device, a second device, and a plurality of nodes:\n determining a plurality of paths from the first device to the second device, each path of the plurality of paths comprising a respective series of nodes of the plurality of nodes; determining, for each path of the plurality of paths, a respective evaluation of the path based on a throughput metric and a wireless channel utilization metric; based on the evaluations, selecting a selected path from the plurality of paths for communication from the first device to the second device; and based on selecting the selected path, transmitting a communication from the first device to the second device via the selected path.
