Dynamically updating load balancing policies based on operations, administration, maintenance, and provisioning (OAMP) data generated by a load balancing network may provide increased load balancing performance. As an example, an existing set of load-balancing policies can be dynamically modified based on OAMP data generated by load balancers and/or network elements. As another example, new load-balancing policies can be dynamically created based on the OAMP data. As yet another example, an updated set of load-balancing policies can be selected from a pool of policies based on OAMP data. Dynamically updating load balancing policies can be achieved using information model processing frameworks, such as the next generation directory enabled networks (DEN-ng) model.
