ABSTRACT:
Methods and systems for controlling a flow of packets being forwarded by a customer premises equipment to an endpoint of a fast packet switching network having a plurality of virtual connections provisioned from the endpoint to a plurality of destination endpoints. A parameter indicative of bandwidth usage associated with the endpoint over at least two of the virtual connections is obtained. The flow of packets being forwarded to the endpoint is inhibited when the parameter violates a predetermined threshold.
