QUESTION: What will be the total data rate and what will be the individual data rates?
ANSWER
:
•
After serving all high priority queues, only 500 Kbps is left for ASFD classes.
•
This leftover bandwidth is less than the total minimum bandwidth; it must therefore share
the residual 500 Kbps among all four ASFD classes equally - i.e., 500/4=175 Kbps per class.
•
Since ASFD 4 has the service rate 100 Kbps, the excess 75 Kbps will be given the other
queues where the service rate not met.
•
In this case the 75 Kbps again will share equally among ASFD3, ASFD2, and ASFD1 since
these service rates were not met.
•
The resulting individual data rate is as follows:

L.3 Glossary of Terms
Filtering – QoS allows specific flows to be designated as “filtered,” whereby the IP Packet
Processor discards traffic that is otherwise not wanted for forwarding over a satellite link.
Jitter – Measured in milliseconds, this is the amount of variation between two consequent
frames at the receiving end.
Latency – This is the amount of delay, measured in milliseconds, from Ethernet interface of the
near -end modem to the Ethernet interface of the far-end modem.
Maximum Bandwidth – This value can be assigned to a flow to restrict the Maximum Bandwidth
that any particular flow will utilize; otherwise, the default of no bandwidth restriction can be
selected.
