1. An apparatus for the transmission of control traffic in a network, comprising:
- a memory configured to store a first record of control data from a previous interval; and
a processor coupled to the memory, wherein the processor is configured to;
retrieve the first record;
receive a second record of the network control data for a current interval; and
generate a differential of the first and second records.
