Abstract
In one embodiment, a root device may request that one or more devices of a computer network build a directed acyclic graph (DAG) for routing traffic within the computer network based on an objective function (OF), where the OF has one or more metrics to optimize the DAG against and optionally certain constraints. Particular devices that receive the request may then build the DAG based on the OF, and may determine and report OF feedback to the root device. Upon receiving the reports regarding OF feedback, the root device may then adjust the OF based on the feedback, and request a rebuild of the DAG from the devices based on the adjusted OF.
