A method for operating a control module to allocate traffic exchanges between an intermediate network and a plurality of carrier networks in a communication system is provided. The method includes monitoring first traffic transferring from the intermediate network to a first carrier network to determine an amount of outbound traffic, and monitoring second traffic transferring from the first carrier network to the intermediate network to determine an amount of inbound traffic. The method also includes determining a supplemental amount based on the amount of outbound traffic and the amount of inbound traffic, and transmitting a control message that identifies the supplemental amount to a second carrier network instructing the second carrier network to transfer supplemental traffic in an amount less than or equal to the supplemental amount.
