Abstract:
Some embodiments move the task of selecting between different transit provider paths from the network level to the application level. Some embodiments perform network level configurations involving a destination network router advertising over a first transit provider path, a unique first address identifying a destination network server as reachable via the first path and advertising over a second transit provider path, a unique second address identifying the destination network server as reachable via the second path. Some embodiments further perform application level configurations involving a source network server passing a first packet to the destination network server over the first path by addressing the first packet to the first address and passing a second packet to the destination network server over the second path by addressing the second packet to the second address. The path selection may be based on policies accounting for congestion, performance, and other metrics.

Claim (Index 9):
A method comprising:\n mapping a first network address with which to access a first server in a first network to (i) a different second network address and a first network path connecting the first network to a remote second network, and (ii) a different third network address and a different second network path connecting the first network to the remote second network; and routing a packet from the remote second network to the first server in the first network over a network path selected by a second server in the remote second network generating the packet, wherein the routing comprises sending the packet from the remote second network through the first network path to the first network based on the destination address of the packet set as the second network address, wherein the routing further comprises sending the packet from the remote second network through the second network path to the first network based on the destination address of the packet set as the third network address, and wherein the second network address and the third network address are different than the first network address of the first server that is an intended recipient for the packet.
