Abstract

In one embodiment, a method includes configuring a first application probe class and a second application probe class. The first application probe class may be associated with a first Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP), and the second application probe class may be associated with a second DSCP. The method also includes determining an adaptive Forward Error Correction (FEC) data policy for the first application probe class and the second application probe class, calculating a first loss value associated with the first application probe class for a link between a first network node and a second network node, and comparing the first loss value to a first loss threshold. The method further includes determining whether to activate FEC processing for the first application probe class in response to comparing the first loss value to the first loss threshold.
