Abstract
In one example, a method includes monitoring conditions in a telecommunication service provider network, selecting a first path by which to connect a communication session between a first endpoint and a second endpoint, wherein the first path is a path through the network that is expected to satisfy a predefined level of performance for the communication session based on the conditions, connecting the first endpoint and the second endpoint via the first path, detecting a change in the conditions that results in the first path failing to satisfy the predefined level of performance, selecting a second path by which to connect the communication session, wherein the second path is a path through the network that is expected to satisfy the predefined level of performance for the communication session based on the conditions as changed, and initiating a handoff of the communication session from the first path to the second path.
