A method is proposed for processing of data packets received by an upstream node and intended for transmission to a terminal by a downstream node. The upstream node includes a queue of non-priority data packets intended for the terminal. The method includes: obtaining a first piece of information representing a filling state of the above-mentioned queue over a predetermined period of observation; when the first piece of information obtained has a value indicating a filling level of the queue that is lower than or equal to a first predetermined non-zero low threshold, reducing a rate of departure from the queue; when the first piece of obtained information has a value indicating a filling level of the queue that is higher than a first predetermined high threshold higher than or equal to the first low threshold, increasing the rate of departure from the queue.

Methods for the processing of data packets, corresponding device, computer program product, storage medium and network node

A technique is provided for processing a data stream between a server and a client entity in a packet communication network. The data stream is composed of packets steered by a processing device. Upon the receipt of a first packet of the data stream, the processing device implements a phase of observing this data stream, in the course of which the packets of the data stream which are exchanged between the server and the client entity and which follow the first packet are transmitted. On detection of congestion associated with the data stream, the data stream is then rejected and the processing device does not transmit packets of the data stream which are exchanged between the server and the client entity and are received after detection of the congestion.

Technique for processing a data stream between a server and a client entity

A method and apparatus are provided for configuring management parameter values of data messages of a data stream. The method includes a first step of sending from a first communications network to a second communications network a first message of the data stream including a first data message management parameter value and a second step of sending from the second network to the first network a second message of the data stream including a second data message management parameter value. The method further includes a step of selecting from the first and second management parameter values a management parameter value to be applied to all the data messages of the data stream.
