ABSTRACT:
The subject matter described herein includes methods, systems, and computer program products for managing congestion in a multi-layer telecommunications signaling network protocol stack. According to one method, a congestion parameter is set for a first layer in a telecommunications signaling network protocol stack. The congestion parameter is automatically propagated for at least one second layer in the telecommunications signaling protocol stack. The first layer and the at least one second layer are monitored and layer-specific congestion management procedures are triggered using the parameters.
