<p>The invention concerns a machine (15) acting as router implementing the inventive method to reduce congestion in its network layer (16) when it accumulates in a waiting list datagrams (12) to be transmitted on a network (18). The method comprises a first step (29) which consists in measuring the filling up level of said waiting list (20) to prepare a signal (NIV) based on said filling level; a second step (30) which consists in detecting any datagram received from said network (18), whereof a field (28) of a transport layer (6) contains a received window value (VFE); a third step (31) which works out a transmitted window value (VFE) based on said signal (NIV) to process the detected datagram by including therein said value (VFE) in said field; a fourth step (32) which consists in routing the datagram processed on the network (17) addressed to a transport layer (4) limiting its transmission rate on the basis of the transmitted window value (VFE).</p> |
