diffServRandomDropWeight
Module: DIFFSERV-MIB
OID (symbolic): DIFFSERV-MIB::diffServRandomDropWeight
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.97.1.6.4.1.7
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: Unsigned32
Access: read-create
Description: The weighting of past history in affecting the Exponentially Weighted Moving Average function that calculates the current average queue depth. The equation uses diffServRandomDropWeight/65536 as the coefficient for the new sample in the equation, and (65536 - diffServRandomDropWeight)/65536 as the coefficient of the old value.
Implementations may limit the values of diffServRandomDropWeight to a subset of the possible range of values, such as powers of two. Doing this would facilitate implementation of the Exponentially Weighted Moving Average using shift instructions or registers.
What is diffServRandomDropWeight?
The weighting factor (as weight/65536) used in the exponentially weighted moving average that RED uses to estimate the current queue depth. A higher weight makes the average react faster to recent queue changes; some implementations restrict this to powers of two for efficient shift-based computation.
