This study focuses on creating and investigating models that optimize load balancing in communication networks by managing routing and traffic limitations. The purpose is to use these models to optimize the network’s routing and traffic limitations while ensuring predictable quality of service levels, and adhering to traffic engineering requirements for routing and limiting traffic at the network edge. In order to achieve this aim, a mathematical optimization model was developed based on a chosen optimality criterion. Two modifications of the traffic engineering routing were created, including the linear limitation model (TER-LLM) and traffic engineering limitation (TER-TEL), each considering the main features of packet flow: intensity and priority. The proposed solutions were compared by analyzing various data inputs, including the ratio of flow parameters and the intensity with which packets will be limited at the border router. The study presents recommendations on the optimal use of the proposed solutions based on their respective features and advantages.
