发明名称 Method and Apparatus For Computer Network Bandwidth Control and Congestion Management
摘要 In one embodiment, a network switch includes first logic for receiving a flow, including identifying a reaction point as the source of the data frames included in the flow. The network switch further includes second logic for detecting congestion at the network switch and associating the congestion with the flow and the reaction point, third logic for generating congestion notification information in response to congestion, and fourth logic for receiving control information, including identifying the reaction point as the source of the control information. The network switch further includes fifth logic for addressing the congestion notification information and the control information to the reaction point, wherein the data rate of the flow is based on the congestion notification information and the control information. The content of the data frames included in the flow is independent of the congestion notification information and the control information in a first mode of the network switch.
