<p>A method for controlling data flow in a network includes dynamically varying a minimum frame slot number, transmitting at least bytes of data from a frame of data of a slot, determining the end of the frame of data, and determining that the number of bytes of data within the frame is less than the current minimum frame slot number and transmitting flag bytes within the slot until the combination of the number of bytes and flag bytes equals the current minimum frame slot number. Apparatus includes a transmitter for transmitting at least bytes of frames of data of a data slot, a byte counter responsive to the transmitter for counting the number of bytes in a frame of transmitted data, and a flag counter responsive to the transmitter for counting the number of flag bytes transmitted within a frame of transmitted data. <IMAGE></p> |
