The Survivable Signaling Network (SSN) is designed to provide a robust, highly survivable signaling network for the National Security Emergency Preparedness needs. The network uses an adaptive routing algorithm, based on a minimum-hop routing algorithm and a flooding technique, t o provide the required network robustness and survivability. The performance objectives of this network, specifically the network capacity objective, are addressed in this paper.
