Abstract: A method and a system for steering traffic in a wireless network. The method and system include an ingress point and an egress point of the wireless network with a plurality of paths between the two points. A plurality of hops are located along the plurality of paths. The plurality of paths may be bound as a single pipe at a logical level. The system may determine a quality of experience (QOE) score. Automated steering policies may be based on the QOE score. Traffic may be steered at each hop based on the automated steering policies. The QOE score may be determined by measuring bandwidth, loss, latency, and jitter at each hop. A customer may provide prioritization at an application level and the automated steering policies may also be based on the customer prioritization.
