METHODS AND SYSTEM FOR TICKET VOUCHER FLOW CONTROL IN RESPONSE TO SIGNALING LINK FAILURE

摘要

Methods and systems for ticket voucher flow control throttle MSUs that were enqueued during a signaling link failure. The throtting is performed based on a system of ticket voucher requests and grants. Communication modules (300) seeking to send call signaling messages to outgoing signaling links issue ticket voucher requests. Grantors (414) that are available to send the call signaling messages issue grants to the requestor (412). The grants may be based on the available capacity of an outbound signaling link.
