A method and apparatus for providing traffic management through dynamic and granular definitions of route groups. Within a communications network, a traffic routing control unit (e.g., an intelligent route service control point (IRSCP)) creates route group assignments for each route within a customers network in accordance with a customer's routing plan, determines protocol control values to be set within each edge router of the network to fulfill the group assignments, and uses border gateway protocol (BGP) to set the protocol control values in the edge routers to facilitate fulfilling the route group assignments. Using the traffic routing control unit and programming the protocol control values of the edge routers, enables the network to be flexibly defined and the traffic routing within the network to have very granular control.
