Based on this information simple admission control and flow termination is implemented. The latter is a new flow control function and useful in case of overload through high priority traffic which can occur in spite of admission control, e.g., when traffic is rerouted in failure cases. Resilient admission control admits only so much traffic that admitted traffic can be rerouted without causing congestion on backup paths in case of a likely failures, e.g., single link failures. We propose algorithms to configure the link-specific PCN rate thresholds such that resources are utilized efficiently and fairly by competing traffic aggregates while meeting resilience constraints. This is done for the single and dual marking PCN architecture whereby the single marking case is more demanding since it requires that the supportable rate is a fixed multiple of the admissible rate on all links within a single PCN domain. Furthermore, we derive objective functions to optimize the underlying routing system for both cases. Our performance results for various network types show that the dual marking PCN architecture leads to significantly better resource efficiency than the single marking PCN architecture.
