Abstract

A system of one embodiment provides reverse affinity link exclusion for a computer network. The system includes a memory and a processor. The memory is operable to store logical transmission links, logical receiving links, and metrics for data packets of nodes. The system determines a threshold value for node link reliability. The system determines the node link reliability of a receiving node link by evaluating data loss associated with one or more incoming data packets. The system compares the node link reliability to the threshold value. The system identifies the receiving node link when the node link reliability exceeds the threshold value. The system communicates the identified receiving node link to one or more nodes.
