Safely Engineering Egress Traffic Changes

Automation of Egress Peer Engineering (EPE) is an important topic for today's large-scale Internet service and content providers. Automatically applying large scale traffic changes is beneficial but also risky. In this paper, we formulate a model for EPE network traffic changes and their risks and benefits. Using this model, we devise a heuristic algorithm that can automatically apply large scale traffic changes to efficiently obtain the benefit in a safe way.
