Abstract

Switch fabric in routers require tight characteristics in term of packet loss, fairness in bandwidth allocation and low latency for high-priority traffic. Such attributes have been resolved using specialized switch devices, but with the emergence of Data Center Bridging, the possibility of using commodity Ethernet switches to build switch fabric in routers is considered. Systems and methods are provided for adjusting a data transmission rate in accordance with an estimation of network path utilization.
