    This patent document describes a method for routing data between nodes in a network. It involves assigning costs to links between nodes, determining the lowest cost route from a source node to a destination node using a shortest path algorithm, and routing data along the lowest cost path. Diagrams show examples of networks with multiple nodes connected by links and the process of calculating costs and determining the shortest path.
