Abstract
Congestion control is provided in a first telecommunications element by receiving a congestion state for a second telecommunications element coupled to the first telecommunications element. An internal congestion state is set in the first telecommunications element for the second telecommunications element based on the congestion state. The internal congestion state for the second telecommunications element is maintained in the first telecommunications element independently of receiving a disparate congestion state for the second telecommunications element.
