Abstract
In one embodiment, a method includes receiving a routing distribution profile associated with a set of network resources disposed between a source endpoint and a destination endpoint. The set of network resources is within a session over Internet Protocol (SoIP) network. A distribution function is defined based on the routing distribution profile and based on a range of random number values. The distribution function is used to route via a network resource from the set of network resources a request to establish a session between the source endpoint and the destination endpoint.
