| Description | A scaling factor used for the WRED calculation to
determine the packet drop probability for the current
drop precedence level. The value is specified as a
number S from 1-15 and is used in the formula: 1/(2**
S), meaning one packet is dropped out of every (2**
S). Packet dropping begins when
agentCosQueueMgmtWredMinThreshold is reached and
proceeds linearly up to the (2**S) value specified by
this object until the
agentCosQueueMgmtWredMaxThreshold is reached, beyond
which all packets are dropped. Smaller values of S
produce a steeper slope, hence a higher incidence of
randomly dropped packets.
The default value is 10, which corresponds to a drop
rate of 1 out of every (2**10)=1024 packets.
This object is only used when agentCosQueueMgmtType
is set to wred(2). |
