Abstract

The paper presents analytical models for two types of token bucket based meter/markers used as building blocks of Assured Forwarding PHB in IP/DiffServ networks: srTCM and trTCM. The models enable quick finding of meter/marker characteristics under particular configuration and checking how parameter manipulations affect the characteristics of meter/markers. The models are validated by simulations with two types of traffic: TCP/ftp and web-like traffic.
