Abstract
An approach is provided for dynamic congestion control among mobile virtual routers. A determination is made whether a congested segment of a network of a plurality of physical routers. A temporary congestion point is created at a mobile virtual router to divert traffic away from the congested segment using logical tunnels over non-congested physical links, wherein the mobile virtual router is configured to utilize resources of at least two of the physical routers.
