Abstract
The present disclosure relates to techniques for determining optimal routing paths for computing devices in a network, including selecting an optimal gateway among a number of available gateways. The techniques include gathering data regarding characteristics of a network, including gateways and network access nodes (NANs) in at least one access network. The characteristics can include, e.g., supported frequency bands, communication protocols, signal-to-noise ratio, power, signal noise and quality, slicing information, and whether a network vender is a standalone network vendor or a non-standalone network vendor. In one aspect, the characteristics are obtained using the Mobile Broadband Interface Model (MBIM). The characteristics can be used by devices in determining routing paths based on requirements of individual flows and/or workflows of individual application instances.
