H04L 47/11 Identifying congestion
H04L 47/12 Avoiding congestion; Recovering from congestion
H04L 47/17 Interaction among intermediate nodes, e.g. hop by hop
H04L 47/19 at layers above the network layer
H04L 47/2 Traffic policing
H04L 47/21 using leaky-bucket
H04L 47/215 using token-bucket
H04L 47/22 Traffic shaping
H04L 47/24 Traffic characterised by specific attributes, e.g. priority or QoS
H04L 47/25 with rate being modified by the source upon detecting a change of network conditions
H04L 47/26 using explicit feedback to the source, e.g. choke packets
H04L 47/27 Evaluation or update of window size, e.g. using information derived from acknowledged [ACK] packets
H04L 47/28 in relation to timing considerations
H04L 47/3 in combination with information about buffer occupancy at either end or at transit nodes
H04L 47/31 by tagging of packets, e.g. using discard eligibility [DE] bits
H04L 47/32 by discarding or delaying data units, e.g. packets or frames
H04L 47/33 using forward notification
H04L 47/34 ensuring sequence integrity, e.g. using sequence numbers
H04L 47/35 by embedding flow control information in regular packets, e.g. piggybacking
H04L 47/36 by determining packet size, e.g. maximum transfer unit [MTU]
