Abstract

See full text

A data processing system includes a phantom queue for each of a plurality of output ports each associated with an output link for outputting data. The phantom queues receive/monitor traffic on the respective ports and/or the associated links such that the congestion or traffic volume on the output ports/links is able to be determined by a congestion mapper coupled with the phantom queues. Based on the determined congestion level on each of the ports/links, the congestion mapper selects one or more non or less congested ports/links as destination of one or more packets. A link selection logic element then processes the packets according to the selected path or multi-path thereby reducing congestion on the system.
