Abstract
Embodiments described herein relate to techniques for dynamically adjusting information propagation metrics for information propagation paths of network devices based on signal quality. Such techniques may include: obtaining a signal quality parameter for an interface of a network device; making a first determination, using the signal quality parameter, that a signal quality for an information propagation path using the interface is below a signal quality threshold; making a decision, by a signal quality analyzer and based on the first determination, to adjust an information propagation metric by an information propagation metric quantity; providing, by the signal quality analyzer, the information propagation metric quantity to an information propagation decision making device; and programming, by the information propagation decision making device, a new information propagation path that does not include the interface into a hardware component of the network device based on receiving the information propagation metric quantity.
