Hi,
I have been analyzing the various flow controls.
I wonder why Rate based flow control are never
used in Data Link Layer ? Why is feedback based
flow control alone being promoted in Data Link Layer ?

I tried few links in internet, but they do not
seem to convey the reasons for the absence of
rate based flow control in Data Link Layer.
Any ideas ?

Thx in advans,
