WRED makes Queue thersohold limits for each ip precedence
each ip precedence get different minimum thersohold to maximum # packets
thershold
Between minimum to maximum , indicated probability used ..after maximum, it is
100 % drop.
So depending on precedence, each flow get their maximum # thershold

Subject: [OSL | CCIE_RS] RED
I have a general question. If TCP packets are dropped causing a slow down on
a network ( Tail drop ) If I enable RED and it starts randomly dropping
packets before the congestion happens how does this help me. I keep reading
answers that say it drops the packet before the congestion starts but it’s
still dropping packets how does this help?
Ed,
