Abstract
Computer networking device obtains route information including route attributes specifying characteristics for each of a plurality of routes through a first network. A routing algorithm is applied to choose an optimal route to one of a plurality of peer computer networking devices comprising a second network which is an overlay upon the first network. The optimal route is chosen based on the type of data contained in the data packet and the plurality of route attributes associated with the routes. The routes traverse paths through the first computer network which include network nodes other than the peer networking devices.
