    A third method to avoid network congestion is the explicit allocation of network resources to specific flows. One example of this is the use of Contention-Free Transmission Opportunities (CFTXOPs) in the ITU-T G.hn home networking standard. For the Internet, RFC 2914 addresses the subject of congestion control in detail. Network resilience
