ABSTRACT:
An apparatus comprising a plurality of first counters, a second counter, and a logic circuit. The plurality of first counters may each be configured to increment a first value in response to receiving one of a plurality of incoming data packets on an associated port. The second counter may be configured to increment a second value in response to a highest value of said first values being incremented. The logic circuit may be configured to generate an output representing a volume of packet traffic in response to the plurality of first values and the second value. The output signal generally indicates which of a plurality of ports is best suited for implementing flow control.
