Abstract
One embodiment in accordance with the invention is a method. For example, the method can include receiving a plurality of control plane messages. A determination can be made as to whether a processor card of a router is experiencing sustained congestion from the plurality of control plane messages. Provided the processor card is experiencing sustained congestion, a source of the sustained congestion can be identified. A correction phase can be entered in order to respond to the source of the sustained congestion.
