  • Systems and methods for optimizing network traffic
    Patent number: 10356660
    Abstract: Systems and methods for optimizing network traffic are disclosed. In one embodiment, a system for optimizing the performance of a plurality of networks includes a first terminal device, a traffic steering controller, and a terminal traffic steering agent. The traffic steering controller may be configured to receive user profiles, terminal metrics and network performance metrics and create traffic steering rules based on the user profiles, terminal metrics, and network performance. The terminal traffic steering agent may be configured to receive traffic steering rules from the traffic steering controller and direct a virtual network switch based on the traffic steering rules. The virtual network switch may be configured to handle network traffic at a virtual network interface and, based on directions received from the traffic steering controller, exchange network traffic at least at a physical interface of at least one of the plurality of access networks.
