• Part of the Ethernet standard, not iWARP
– Network vendors use a separate interface to support it
• Dynamic bandwidth allocation to flows based on interval
between two packets in a flow
– E.g., one stall for every packet sent on a 10 Gbps network refers to
a bandwidth allocation of 5 Gbps
– Complicated because of TCP windowing behavior
• Important for high-latency/high-bandwidth networks
– Large windows exposed on the receiver side
– Receiver overflow controlled through rate control
