A system for protecting a network from a traffic surge includes a data collection module, an allocation module, and a traffic flow module. The data collection module is configured to obtain network utilization information for a plurality of traffic flows. The allocation module is configured to determine a bandwidth allocation to minimize a drop probability for the plurality of traffic flows. The traffic flow module is configured to preferentially drop network packets for a traffic flow exceeding the optimal bandwidth allocation.
