4 AFCBQ
5 -----
6 AF PHB built using CBQ, DSMARK,GRED (default in GRIO mode) ,RED for BE
7 and the tcindex classifier with some algorithmic mapping
8
9 EFCBQ
10 -----
11 EF PHB built using CBQ (for rate control and prioritization),
12 DSMARK( to remark DSCPs), tcindex classifier and RED for the BE
13 traffic.
14
15 EFPRIO
16 ------
17 EF PHB using the PRIO scheduler, Token Bucket to rate control EF,
18 tcindex classifier, DSMARK to remark, and RED for the BE traffic

23 CB-3(1|2)-(u32/chains)
24 ======================

27 The major differences are that the classifier is u32 on -u32 extension
28 and IPchains on the chains extension. CB stands for color Blind
29 and 31 is for the mode where only a CIR and CBS are defined whereas
30 32 stands for a mode where a CIR/CBS + PIR/EBS are defined.

32 Color Blind (CB)
33 ==========-----=
34 We look at one special subnet that we are interested in for simplicty
35 reasons to demonstrate the capability. We send the packets from that
36 subnet to AF4*, BE or end up dropping depending on the metering results.
37
38
39 The algorithm overview is as follows:
40
41 *classify:
42
43 **case: subnet X
44 ----------------
45 if !exceed meter1 tag as AF41
46 else
47 if !exceed meter2 tag as AF42
48 else
49 if !exceed meter 3 tag as AF43
50 else
51 drop
52
53 default case: Any other subnet
54 -------------------------------
55 if !exceed meter 5 tag as AF43
56 else
57 drop
58
59
60 One Egress side change the DSCPs of the packets to reflect AF4* and BE
61 based on the tags from the ingress.
62
63 -------------------------------------------------------------
64
65 Color Aware
66 ===========
67
68 Define some meters with + policing and give them IDs eg
69
70 meter1=police index 1 rate $CIR1 burst $CBS1
71 meter2=police index 2 rate $CIR2 burst $CBS2 etc
72
73 General overview:
74 classify based on the DSCPs and use the policer ids to decide tagging
75
76
77 *classify on ingress:
78
79 switch (dscp) {
80 case AF41: /* tos&0xfc == 0x88 */
81 if (!exceed meter1) break;
82 case AF42: /* tos&0xfc == 0x90 */
83 if (!exceed meter2) {
84 tag as AF42;
85 break;
86 }
87 case AF43: /* tos&0xfc == 0x98 */
88 if (!exceed meter3) {
89 tag as AF43;
90 break;
91 } else
92 drop;
93 default:
94 if (!exceed meter4) tag as BE;
95 else drop;
96 }
97
98 On the Egress side mark the proper AF tags
