Implementation of AQMs on Linux made Easy. Edition No. 1
VDM Publishing House, June 2008, Pages: 132
This dissertation not only explains how to build a custom linux network queuing discipline, but also documents the production and testing of a Mice and Elephants queuing discipline and traffic policer that was needed for for further evaluation of the Mice and Elephants strategy. It introduces the Mice and Elephants queueing strategy that can dramatically improve the responsiveness of a network with little or no penalty to the overall throughput. It further describes how the testing of these queuing disciplines was carried out. It explains the basics of Linux queuing disciplines and ingress filters, as well as the features of the existing queueing disciplines and how to use those features to improve a network. Linux queuing disciplines exist in the Linux kernel itself, and interactive development of the queuing discipline code within the kernel can be treacherous. This dissertation documents the uses of a queuing discipline development and test environment. It also documents the method used to load test the queuing discipline, once it is fully operational in the kernel.
