Abstract
An internal route usage information from a set of internal route usage information is analyzed to determine an encoding structure used in the internal route usage information and an external route that is referenced in internal route usage information. Using the set of internal route usage information, a subset of external route change information is selected from a set of external route change information, where each changed external route represented in the subset is usable to reach a currently used destination on an external network. A first external route change information from the subset is encoded according to the encoding structure, forming a first encoded route change data. Using the first encoded route change data, an internal router in an internal network is caused to recognize a status change in a first external route.
