Abstract
A first device may receive an indication that a time interval has elapsed. The time interval may indicate a time at which the first device is to provide a rate credit update to a second device. The first device may generate a request for a set of instructions. The first device may provide the request to a third device that may store the set of instructions. The first device may store information associated with the request, and a timestamp of the request, in a first data structure. The first device may receive, from the third device, the set of instructions. The first device may store the set of instructions and the timestamp in a second data structure. The first device may determine whether a threshold amount of time after the time indicated by the timestamp has elapsed. The first device may provide the rate credit update to the second device.
