Mesh network resiliency

A device comprising:

• at least one processor;
• and
• at least one memory coupled to the at least one processor having stored thereon instructions which, when executed by the at least one processor, causes the at least one processor to perform operations comprising:
• maintaining ranked routing configurations for nodes of a mesh network in which each routing configuration is associated with a rank;
• identifying, from among the ranked routing configurations, a first set of routing configurations appropriate at a time during which a first power source that powers multiple nodes of the mesh network is available;
• accessing ranks associated with the first set of routing configurations;
• comparing the accessed ranks associated with the first set of routing configurations;
• and
• selecting, from among the first set of routing configurations, a first routing configuration for nodes of the mesh network based on the comparison of the accessed ranks associated with the first set of routing configurations;
• detecting, by one or more nodes of the mesh network, an interruption of the first power source for the mesh network;
• and
• based on the detection of the interruption of the first power source for the mesh network:
• identifying, from among the ranked routing configurations, a second set of routing configurations appropriate at a time during which the first power source that powers multiple nodes of the mesh network is unavailable;
• accessing ranks associated with the second set of routing configurations;
• comparing the accessed ranks associated with the second set of routing configurations;
• and
• selecting, from among the second set of routing configurations, a second routing configuration for nodes of the mesh network based on the comparison of the accessed ranks associated with the second set of routing configurations.
