Used in compound modules:

Name Type Description
DiffservQueue compound module

This is an example queue, that can be used in interfaces of DS core and edge nodes to support the AFxy (RFC 2597) and EF (RFC 3246) PHBs.

DSQueue1 compound module

Diffserv Queue used in Experiment 1.1 - 1.6 and 5.1.

DSQueue2 compound module

Diffserv Queue used in Experiment 2.1 - 2.4.

EtherQoSQueue compound module

Queue module that gives the PAUSE frames a higher priority, and can be parametrized with an IOutputQueue for serving the other frames.

Parameters:

Name Type Default value Description
frameCapacity int 100
queueName string "l2queue"

name of the inner cQueue object, used in the 'q' tag of the display string

Properties:

Name Value Description
display i=block/queue

Gates:

Name Direction Size Description
in input
out output

Signals:

Name Type Unit
