Abstract
An embodiment may include circuitry to be included, at least in part, in at least one node in a network. The circuitry may generate, at least in part, and/or receive, at least in part, at least one packet. The packet may be received, at least in part, by at least one switch node in the network. The switch node may designate, in response at least in part to the packet, at least one port of the switch node to be used to facilitate, at least in part, establishment, at least in part, of at least one path for propagation of at least one flow between at least two other nodes in the network. The packet may be generated based at least in part upon (1) at least one application classification, (2) at least one allocation request, and (3) network resource availability information.
