Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2002051052
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The present invention is a system and method for routing a media stream. As part of the present invention there is a configurable dynamic router (100) which may receive a media stream and may select an output path from a set of possible output data paths based on network traffic conditions and on service level information associated with the media stream's source. A network management unit (400) may reconfigure the router such that the set of possible output paths is changed in accordance with traffic conditions throughout the network. The dynamic router (100) may simultaneously transmit the same packet on multiple data paths.
