Abstract
One embodiment of the present invention provides a system that facilitates dynamically configuring communication parameters for an application on a network node. During operation, the system monitors activities on the network node that are external to the application. If the level of the activities exceeds a specified threshold, the system adjusts the communications parameters for the application, so that activities external to the application on the network node are not adversely affected by communication activities of the application.
