Dynamic power line bandwidth limit
First Claim
1. A method of dynamically controlling a maximal bandwidth limit of one or more clients in a network connecting the clients to a remote point through a plurality of nodes, comprising:
- monitoring one or more parameters of the traffic through a first node of the network;
determining whether the value of the one or more monitored parameters fulfills a predetermined condition;
changing the maximal bandwidth limit of one or more clients of the network, responsive to a determination that the value of the one or more parameters fulfills the condition; and
imposing the maximal bandwidth on the one or more clients by a second node of the network different from the first node.

Abstract
A method of dynamically controlling a maximal bandwidth limit of one or more clients in a network connecting the clients to a remote point through a plurality of nodes. The method includes monitoring one or more parameters of the traffic through a first node of the network, determining whether the value of the one or more monitored parameters fulfills a predetermined condition, changing the maximal bandwidth limit of one or more clients of the network, responsive to a determination that the value of the one or more parameters fulfills the condition and imposing the maximal bandwidth on the one or more clients by a second node of the network different from the first node.

37. A communication unit, comprising:
-
an input interface adapted to receive data for transmission;
an output interface adapted to forward data received by the input interface;
a controller adapted to determine a dynamic bandwidth limit for at least one client responsive to information on a parameter of the traffic through a different unit of a network in which the communication unit operates; and
a data processor adapted to impose the dynamic bandwidth limit on the data received by the input interface. - View Dependent Claims (38, 39, 40, 41)
