Techniques are described for providing service level agreement performance in a link aggregation group computer networking environment. A performance measurement data packet such as a bi-directional forwarding detection (BFD) packet is received. The performance measuring data packet can be considered a parent performance measurement data packet is split into multiple child performance measurement data packets which are each different constituent links of a link aggregation database. The performance of each constituent is tested to determine which constituents satisfy service level agreement parameters. Data packets can then be sent to constituents that meet the data packet's service level agreement performance parameters while still allowing link aggregation grouping.
A system for ensuring data when routed in a network complies with a Service Level Agreement (SLA) performance requirement, comprising:
A router configured to ensure that data when routed in a network complies with a Service Level Agreement (SLA) performance requirement, the router comprising:
One or more non-transitory computer-readable media storing computer-executable instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:
