Patent

CA 2237208

In a muter in a network comprising a source node, and a receiver node, and other nodes, a congestion monitor determines a degree of congestion, which is sent back to the source node, using an OSI network layer protocol. This enables the flow of packets from the source to be controlled more accurately to maintain high throughput with reduced probability of congestion. Using the network layer rather than lower layers can ensure the indication can be carried across the entire network, and not be lost at boundaries between data links making up the network.
