SOURCE QUENCH:

The Source Quench message is used when IP needs to
perform congestion control.  An intermediate router or
the destination host unsually sends an ICMP Source
Quench message for every datagram that it has to drop.

The source, on receiving the Source Quench message,
loweres the rate at which is sends the datagrams.  It
keeps lowering the rate as long as it receives the
Source Quench messages.  Since there is no ICMP
message to indicate that the originator of the Source
Quench message is releived the host begins increasing
the rate when it stops receiving the Source Quench
messages.

It continues to do so until it either reaches the
maximum rate or starts receiving the Source Quench
message again.
