Abstract In this paper we observe the steady state and transient behaviour of correlated cell arrivals into a server with credit‐based traffic policing. We derive expressions for the lag‐ k correlations of the departure process from the traffic policing mechanism, and observe how dependencies in the departure stream affect cell loss at the server. The results illustrate the impact of the second‐order statistics and the higher moments of the cell arrival processes on the traffic policing mechanism performance.
