Abstract
A device may include a processor configured to receive a request to establish a communication session or data flow for a user equipment (UE) device connected to a Radio Access Network (RAN). The processor may be further configured to obtain key performance indicators (KPI) information relating to one or more KPIs for a plurality of paths in a transport network used by the RAN to connect to a core network; determine a KPI requirement for the communication session or data flow to be established; select a path in the transport network based on the obtained KPI information and the determined KPI requirement; and establish the communication session or data flow in the transport network using the selected path.
