Abstract
In one embodiment, a device identifies, based on traceroute information for a path in a network between an endpoint client and an online application, a particular segment of the path as most likely to cause degraded performance along the path. The device makes, using a prediction model, a prediction that routing traffic for the online application via the path will result in degraded quality of experience for the online application. The device obtains, based on the prediction, additional traceroute information in the network, to identify a bypass path in the network between the endpoint client and the online application that bypasses the particular segment. The device causes traffic for the online application to be routed along the bypass path.
