The method of the invention includes the step of transmitting a priority indicator containing information indicating the priority of network tragic over a connection to a downstream node in a communications network. The downstream node has a queue for queuing traffic received over the connection and the queue has an adjustable discard range. After transmitting the priority indicator, the network traffic is transmitted over the connection. When the priority indicator is received at the downstream node the discard range is adjusted to correspond to the priority indicated in the priority indicator. At the downstream node the network traffic is stored in the queue if a queue congestion measure is outside the discard range and discarded if the queue congestion measure is within the discard range. The priority indicator may be a Resource Management cell or may be provided in the header of a cell carrying the network traffic.
