The method includes operating the network in first and second modes of operation. In the first mode, traffic between the first and second nodes is transmitted over the first path and not the second path. In the second mode, traffic is transmitted over the first and second paths. The mode of operation is selected based upon a level of traffic between the first and second nodes.
