Abstract:
A method and system for enabling management of a plurality of messages in a communication network is provided. The method includes measuring an in-load and an out-service corresponding to a plurality of switching-nodes in the communication network. The method further includes marking at least one message in a switching-node with an Explicit Congestion Notification (ECN) to form at least one Precise ECN (PECN)-message, if at least one predefined criterion corresponding to a switching-node evaluates to true. Each PECN-message is encoded with measurements of the in-load and the out-service corresponding to the switching-node. Thereafter, one or more management functions are performed to modify egress of the plurality of messages from a source-node. The source-node transmits the plurality of messages to a destination-node through the switching-node.
