Abstract
A method of volume screening signalling messages in a communications signalling system, in which control orders from a centralized control are distributed so as to provide equitable volume screening of selected signalling messages being sent over each available communications link of a plurality of links within link sets that interconnect signal transfer points (STPs) of the system. This is achieved by dynamically apportioning the acceptance rate of the selected signalling messages from each available link, in the same proportion as that of the total signalling messages being sent over that available link.
