Abstract
Considerable interest has arisen in congestion control through traffic engineering. The goal of congestion control is to avoid congestion in network elements. A network element is congested if it is being offered more traffic than it can process. To detect such situations and to neutralize them we should monitor traffic in the network. This report focuses on the congestion control in the network. It explains congestion control in TCP. How congestion occurs and different measures adopted to remove congestion are highlighted here.

INTRODUCTION * As the days are going forward, the necessity and involvement to network are increasing at an exponential rate. With the increment of user, development in this field is necessary. Communication over internet is nothing but transferring of data from one user to other user or we can say from one end system to other end system. There are two basic types of methodology used for data transferring, circuit switching and packet switching. Modern networks are basically a hybrid of both of them. In the packet switched network the original data is divided into small packets and sent over the net to ensure the maximum use of the network resources. These packets travel the whole network with the help of the intermediate routers that is the network switches and reaches the destination end system by a complex procedure. In the intermediate routers all the packets are first stored, queued and then forwarded to the outgoing link. Here very often it happens that due to various causes all the packets arriving at the router cannot be stored and forwarded to the client. As a result congestion
