| = Link routing flow control |
| |
| Unlike message routing, with link routing, the sender and receiver handle flow control directly: the receiver grants link credits, which is the number of messages it is able to receive. The router sends them directly to the sender, and then the sender sends the messages based on the credits that the receiver granted. |
