ABSTRACT:
A system provides congestion control in a network device. The system includes multiple queues, a dequeue engine, a drop engine, and an arbiter. The queues temporarily store data. The dequeue engine selects a first one of the queues and dequeues data from the first queue. The drop engine selects a second one of the queues to examine and selectively drop data from the second queue. The arbiter controls selection of the queues by the dequeue engine and the drop engine.
