Abstract
A network device provides output data rate control having variable bandwidth and a response time constant that increases according to an amount of time that an input rate of data to the network device is evaluated by the logic to provide output data rate control. The device applies a rate estimate when a determination of the output rate to a predetermined accuracy is unavailable.
