Network data congestion management method

摘要

A method to manage data congestion in a computer network may include network devices to route data packets throughout the network. The method may also include a source node that sends data packets to any of the network devices. The method may further include a routing table at each network device that is updated by the source node, and the route the data packets are sent by any network device is based upon each respective routing table.

1. A method comprising:
sending data packets to any of network devices from a source node; routing the data packets throughout a network via the network devices; collecting congestion notification messages in a congestion notification message stream from the network devices; updating a routing table at each network device by the source node, wherein the routing table determines the route the data packets are sent by any network device; adding a header to the data packets by the source node, the header defines a virtual local area network and includes virtual local area network identifier, the virtual local area network identifier triggers a new virtual local area network routing scheme in each network device; and filtering the congestion notification messages used by the source node from the network devices such that high frequency noise is blocked and the congestion notification message stream is smoothed.
