The closed-loop optimization commands provide you with the means to direct traffic away from links that are approaching their maximum contracted usage rates. The CNA link-monitoring process polls your edge routers at user-specified intervals, and the decision-maker process factors current link-usage rates into the performance-route selection process.

See Figure 2.
