Abstract
The present disclosure relates to an apparatus, a method, and a non-transitory computer readable storage medium for managing bandwidth in a computer network. The method may identify that a first received packet belongs to a first traffic class and a second received packet belongs to a second traffic class where the first traffic class is associated with a higher priority than the second traffic class. The method may also identify that the first and the second traffic classes compete for shared bandwidth at the computer network. The method may monitor a number of bytes received that are associated with the first traffic class and second traffic class and perform a series of calculations used to adjust a window size according to the relative priorities of the first and the second traffic class.
