  • Systems and methods for determining routing data based on explicit congestion notifications and active queue management enabled network devices
    Patent number: 11963085
    Abstract: A device may receive explicit congestion notification data associated with user devices connected to a network of network devices, and may receive network data identifying network metrics associated with the network devices. The device may generate an active queue management mapping table based on utilizing a model to process the explicit congestion notification data and the network data. The device may determine, based on the active queue management mapping table and the network data, a routing table that includes routing data identifying traffic paths with active queue management enabled network devices and without non-active queue management enabled network devices of the network devices. The device may provide the routing table to the network devices.
