Summary:In this paper, it is shown that the admission control routine in Flow-Aware Networks (FAN) may lead to severe fair rate degradation, which negatively impacts the performance of streaming applications. In order to prevent this negative behavior, the limitation mechanism is proposed. The aim of the mechanism is to limit the maximum number of new flows that may be admitted on a link between any two consecutive network's automeasurements. The solution is efficient, viable and dramatically reduces the fair rate degradation.
