Abstract

See full text

A method of controlling data packet congestion in a data packet network comprises determining a reference flow condition that results in data packet congestion at a node of a data packet network, and identifying a data packet flow having a flow condition substantially equal to the reference flow condition. For such an identified data packet flow the following actions are taken causing a data packet to be dropped from the identified data packet flow, allowing a predetermined number of data packets from the identified data packet flow to proceed, and dropping data packets from the identified data packet flow subsequent to the predetermined number of data packets, until the packets that were not dropped have been delivered to the egress ports of the network.
