Abstract

Techniques for designing networks. The techniques utilize network management-based routing (NMS routing) in conjunction with the planning step (design-based routing) of the design process so that an optimal network may be designed. An automated technique for designing a network may comprise the following steps. First, one or more traffic demands are obtained. Then, a network is computed by determining one or more routes for the one or more traffic demands using a design-based routing methodology based on feedback from a network management-based routing methodology.
