Abstract
A device may store a first and second queue of packets, calculate an average queue size based on the number of packets in the first and second queues and discard a packet when the packet is a session creation packet and the calculated average queue size is greater than a threshold value.
Claims21
1-21. (canceled)
A method comprising:
- dequeueing, by a device, a packet from a queue;
- calculating, by the device, an average queue size of the queue based on:
- a quantity of packets included in the queue after the packet has been dequeued from the queue, and
- a previous average queue size based on a prior quantity of packets included in the queue;
- further processing, by the device, the packet when the calculated average queue size does not exceed a threshold value;
- determining, by the device, whether the packet is a session creation packet when the calculated average queue size exceeds the threshold value;
- and
- discarding, by the device, the packet when the calculated average queue size exceeds the threshold value and when the packet is a session creation packet.

A device comprising:
- a processor to:
- calculate an average queue size of a queue based on:
- a quantity of packets included in the queue after a packet has been dequeued from the queue, and
- a previous average queue size based on a prior quantity of packets included in the queue;
- determine whether the packet is a session creation packet when the calculated average queue size is greater than a threshold value;
- discard the packet when the packet is a session creation packet and when the calculated average queue size is greater than the threshold value;
- and
- further process the packet when the calculated average queue size is greater than the threshold value and when the packet is not a session creation packet.

A system comprising:
- a device to:
- calculate an average queue size of a queue based on:
- a quantity of packets included in the queue after a packet has been dequeued from the queue, and
- a previous average queue size based on a quantity of packets, included in the queue, prior to the packet being dequeued;
- further process the packet when the calculated average queue size does not exceed a threshold value;
- determine whether the packet is a particular type of packet when the calculated average queue size exceeds the threshold value;
- and
- further process the packet when the calculated average queue size exceeds the threshold value and when the packet is not a particular type of packet.
