ABSTRACT:
The response time for resolving network traffic congestion is accelerated in a Data Center Ethernet (DCE) network. A data packet is received at a node in the network. Congestion of the data packet at the node is detected, and a backward congestion notification signal for the data packet is generated. A packet injection rate is adapted based on at least one of the backward congestion notification signal generated by the node and another backward congestion notification signal.
