Abstract
Methods and systems for network management include performing path regression to determine an end-to-end path across physical links for each data flow in a network. A per-flow utilization of each physical link in the network is estimated based on the determined end-to-end paths. A management action is performed in the network based on the estimated per-flow utilization.
