AI Technical Summary
Technical Problem
Existing flow control mechanisms, such as Priority-based Flow Control (PFC), cause congestion diffusion, reduce throughput rate, and increase average delay, leading to degraded network performance due to indiscriminate pausing of data flows across the network.
Method used
A method and device that identify a 'key flow' causing congestion and selectively pause only that flow using back pressure frames, while allowing other flows to continue, thereby reducing congestion diffusion and packet loss.
Benefits of technology
The solution effectively alleviates congestion, avoids packet loss, and enhances network data exchange performance by accurately controlling traffic flow, ensuring that non-key flows are not affected by congestion management.
