Systems and methods for distributing network traffic based on network node assignments to network domains

A method for network node assignment to network domains, the method comprising:

• executing, by a device, a first process for variable-density-based clustering of a plurality of network nodes of a network using a first configuration of clustering parameters relating to cluster size and cluster density,
• wherein the first process is to identify a plurality of first clusters of network nodes that satisfy the first configuration of clustering parameters and a plurality of first un-clustered network nodes that do not satisfy the first configuration of clustering parameters;
• determining, by the device, one or more clusters of network nodes, of the plurality of first clusters of network nodes, to remove from the plurality of first clusters of network nodes;
• reconfiguring, by the device, (1) the plurality of first clusters of network nodes to remove the one or more clusters of network nodes, and (2) the plurality of first un-clustered network nodes to include network nodes of the one or more clusters of network nodes;
• executing, by the device, a second process for variable-density-based clustering of the plurality of first un-clustered network nodes, as reconfigured, using a second configuration of clustering parameters relating to cluster size and cluster density,
• wherein the second process is to identify a plurality of second clusters of network nodes that satisfy the second configuration of clustering parameters, and a plurality of second un-clustered network nodes that do not satisfy the second configuration of clustering parameters;
• and
• assigning, by the device, the plurality of first clusters of network nodes and the plurality of second clusters of network nodes to a plurality of network domains.

A non-transitory, computer-readable medium, comprising instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause operations comprising:

• executing a first process for variable-density-based clustering of a plurality of network nodes of a network using a first configuration of clustering parameters relating to cluster size and cluster density,
• wherein the first process is to identify a plurality of first clusters of network nodes that satisfy the first configuration of clustering parameters and a plurality of first un-clustered network nodes that do not satisfy the first configuration of clustering parameters;
• removing one or more clusters of network nodes, of the plurality of first clusters of network nodes, from the plurality of first clusters of network nodes, and adding network nodes of the one or more clusters to the plurality of first un-clustered network nodes;
• and
• executing a second process for variable-density-based clustering of the plurality of first un-clustered network nodes using a second configuration of clustering parameters relating to cluster size and cluster density,
• wherein the second process is to identify a plurality of second clusters of network nodes that satisfy the second configuration of clustering parameters, and a plurality of second un-clustered network nodes that do not satisfy the second configuration of clustering parameters.
