Nodes in active networks are allowed to execute some code in order to provide new services. This paper tackles the optimisation of the routing of packets transporting the code, with the objective of favouring the routes towards the active nodes able to execute the code. The proposed solutions is based on the extensions of classical routing protocols. Active network specific information is shared between the routers, and existing algorithms are modified to take these information into account. An implementation for OSPF is described.
