1. A method comprising:
- identifying an optimal route associated with a first node and a second node based on first metric information of a plurality of paths associated with the first and second nodes, the first and second nodes being associated with a wireless communication network; and
maintaining the optimal route associated with the first and second nodes based on second metric information of the plurality of paths.

22. A system comprising:
-
a flash memory; and
a processor coupled to the flash memory to identify an optimal route associated with a source node and a destination node of a wireless mesh network based on first metric values of one or more of paths associated with the source node and the destination node, and to maintain the optimal route associated with the first and second nodes based on second metric values of the one or more paths. - View Dependent Claims (23, 24, 25, 26, 27)
