Abstract
Reverse segmentation may be provided. First, a plurality of legs may be received and combined into a first service group. Next, it may be determined that a number of active user devices increased on at least one of the plurality of legs. A portion of the plurality of legs may then be switched from the first service group to a second service group in response to determining that the number of active user devices increased on the at least one of the plurality of legs.
