With the caveat that I have never worked with any of this hardware, this is my understanding: Basically, you can re-use the drop mechanism from RED and use the PIE algorithm as a (better) way to control the setpoints. This makes it possible to retrofit it in existing hardware. In fact I believe you can implement PIE entirely in the (software) control plane on (a lot of) gear that already knows how to do RED. -Toke _______________________________________________ homenet mailing list homenet@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/homenet
