The Role of Buffer Management in Controlling the Effects of Congestion over 10 GbE Links
Overview This white paper describes the rationale for providing switch/routers with port buffers that are scaled to the expected delay-bandwidth product (DBP). DBP-sized buffers, together with RED congestion avoidance, can be used to optimize the utilization of congested links by TCP applications.
