摘要:
Disclosed is a queue based multi-level Active Queue Management with drop precedence differentiation method and apparatus which uses queue size information for congestion control. The method provides for a lower complexity in parameter configuration and greater ease of configuration over a wide range of network conditions. A key advantage is a greater ability to maintain stabilized network queues, thereby minimizing the occurrences of queue overflows and underflows, and providing high system utilization.

A technique for synchronizing clocks in a network is disclosed. In one exemplary embodiment, the technique may be realized as a method for synchronizing clocks in a network. The method comprises receiving a first timestamp and a second timestamp, each indicating a respective time instance as determined by a first clock signal within the network. The method also comprises measuring a first time interval between the first timestamp and the second timestamp. The method further comprises generating a difference signal representing a difference between the first time interval and a second time interval, and generating a second clock signal based upon the difference signal such that the second clock signal is synchronized with the first clock signal.

An apparatus, method, computer-readable medium and signals for connection-class parameter control of packet flow, involves indicating a desired packet flow from a packet source to a network element having a queue, by communicating to the packet source an indication of a desired number of packets to be received from the source in a time period, in response to a class parameter associated with a class of connections supported by the network element and queue conditions at the network element.
