ABSTRACT:
An apparatus, method, computer-readable medium and signals for connection-class parameter control of packet flow, involves indicating a desired packet flow from a packet source to a network element having a queue, by communicating to the packet source an indication of a desired number of packets to be received from the source in a time period, in response to a class parameter associated with a class of connections supported by the network element and queue conditions at the network element.
