Abstract
A method and apparatus for proactively forming flowlets for a flow in a communication network. The method includes monitoring one or more conditions associated with the flow and detecting a trigger signal. Upon detection of activation of the trigger signal, the method further includes transmitting a pause message.
Claims15
A method for proactively formula flowlets for a flow in a communication network, the method comprising:
- monitoring one or more conditions associated with the flow;
- detecting a trigger signal;
- and
- upon detection of activation of the trigger signal, transmitting a cause message that is a priority base flow control (PFC) message including a priority enabled vector (PEV) field, wherein the PEV field is indicative of an active pause duration time suitable for forming flowlets for a flow in a communication network.

A device for proactively forming flowlets for a flow in a communication network, the device comprising:
- a processor;
- a non-transitory memory storing machine executable instructions, which when executed by the processor configure the device to:
- monitor one or more conditions associated with the flow;
- detect a trigger signal;
- and
- upon detection of activation of the trigger signal, transmit a pause message that is a priority base flow control (PFC) message including a priority enabled vector (PEV) field, wherein the PEV field is indicative of an active pause duration time suitable for forming flowlets for a flow in a communication network.
