Characterization Guidelines for Active Queue Management (AQM)

Metadata

Publisher: IETF
Doc Type: Informational
Pages: 37
Abstract: Unmanaged large buffers in today's networks have given rise to a slew of performance issues. These performance issues can be addressed by some form of Active Queue Management (AQM) mechanism, optionally in combination with a packet-scheduling scheme such as fair queuing. This document describes various criteria for performing characterizations of AQM schemes that can be used in lab testing during development, prior to deployment.
