A method and system are provided for on demand selective rerouting of
logical circuit data. Upon a failed logical circuit being identified in
the data network, one or more alternative logical failover circuits for
rerouting data from the identified failed logical circuit is displayed in
a menu on a display device. A selection of a logical failover circuit is
made using a graphical user interface (GUI). Once the selection of the
logical failover circuit is received, the data from the failed logical
circuit is rerouted to the selected logical failover circuit. Upon
receiving the selection of the logical failover circuit, a determination
may be made as to whether a utilization percentage indicate of congestion
in the selected logical failover circuit exceeds a predetermined
threshold. If the utilization rate exceeds the threshold, then an alert
is generated and the selection of an alternative logical failover circuit
from the menu is requested.
