METHOD FOR INDICATING TRAFFIC CONGESTION IN AN ATM NETWORK TO AN FR NETWORK

摘要

The invention relates to a method for notifying an FR network (FR1, FR2) of traffic congestion in an ATM network (NT). To provide as efficient a notification mechanism as possible, the invention is characterized in that when the ATM network notifies the congestion, a management message (CLLM) indicating congestion is generated at the interface (3, 4) between the ATM network and the FR network and transmitted to the FR network sending congested traffic.
