Abstract:
Back-pressure control in a telecommunications network, in which a method of back-pressure control in a transport network is provided. A buffer state of a buffer is monitored. A condition indicative of back-pressure is also determined in response to a change of the buffer state passing a predetermined limit. In response to determining the condition indicative of back-pressure, a back-pressure notification message is created and, subsequently, transmitted to at least one second network node.

Claim (Index 27):
The first network node ( 10 ) of  claim 26 , further comprising:\n means ( 16 ) adapted to store a list of second network nodes to which the congestion notification message has been transmitted; means ( 16 ) adapted to store the flow identifiers and the back-off information of all transmitted congestion notification messages; means ( 17 ) adapted to check the stored list of second network nodes as well as the stored flow identifiers and the back-off information of all transmitted congestion notification messages to identify a second network node that is currently compensating for congestion; and means ( 14 ) adapted to transmit the back-pressure notification message to each one of the at least one second network node that has been identified to be currently compensating for congestion, in response to identifying at least one second node that is currently compensating for congestion.
