AdaptiveRED

drops packets according to Adaptive RED

SYNOPSIS§

AdaptiveRED(TARGET, MAX_P [, KEYWORDS])

Ports: 1 input, 1-2 outputs
Processing: agnostic, but output 1 is push

DESCRIPTION§

Implements the Adaptive Random Early Detection packet dropping algorithm. This algorithm implements Random Early Detection, as by the RED element, plus automatic parameter setting.

The TARGET argument is the target queue length. RED's MIN_THRESH parameter is set to TARGET/2, and MAX_THRESH to 3*TARGET/2. The MAX_P parameter, and QUEUES and STABILITY keywords, are as in the RED element.
