ABSTRACT:
A distributed computer system includes links and routing devices coupled between the links and routing frames between the links. Each of the routing devices includes a congestion control mechanism for detecting congestion at the routing device and responding to detected congestion by gradually reducing an injection rate of frames routed from the routing device.
