Congestion indication/no increase (CI/NI) ABR flow control for ATM switches

A system and method for updating the congestion indication and no increase values in an resource management cell on an available bit rate connection in an asynchronous transfer mode network. The method determines a per port elastic allocatable rate as a function of a port's capacity, and the cu...

Zusammenfassung:	A system and method for updating the congestion indication and no increase values in an resource management cell on an available bit rate connection in an asynchronous transfer mode network. The method determines a per port elastic allocatable rate as a function of a port's capacity, and the current high priority traffic rate. The values are set according to the underutilization or over utilization of the allocated elastic bandwidth.
