Available Bandwidth Measurement Tools Sample Clauses

Available Bandwidth Measurement Tools. ‌ Pathload [32] is a pure PRM tool where the basic idea is that the one-way delays of a periodic packet stream show increasing trend, when the stream rate is larger than the available bandwidth. The Pathload measurement algorithm is iterative and it requires the cooperation of both the sender and the receiver. Pathload consists of two components: process SND running at the sender and process RCV running at the receiver. The tool uses UDP for the periodic packet streams. Additionally, a TCP connection between the two end-points serves as a ‘control channel’. The control channel transfers messages regarding the characteristics of each stream, the abortion or end of the measurement process, etc. After all streams of a fleet are received, RCV determines whether R > A. If the entire fleet shows an increasing trend we infer that the fleet rate is larger than the avail-bw (R > A). Similarly, if the fleet does not show increasing trend, we infer that the fleet rate is smaller than the avail-bw (R < A). Pathload reports a range rather than a single estimate. The center of this range is the average available bandwidth during the measurements while the range itself estimates the variation of available bandwidth during the measurements. Pathload converges to an avail-bw estimate when the range between the minimum and maximum avail-xx xxxxxx is less than a user-specified resolution. The default configuration for Pathload is a fleet of 12 streams, each stream con- sisting of 100 packets of size 96 bytes. Durations are unstable and increase when the link utilization exceeds 60%. For a path with avail-bw A 10Mbps, pathload typically needs 10 fleets, or 12 seconds, to report an avail-bw estimate. Similarly, when the avail-bw A 75 Mbps, pathload needs 15-18 iterations, and the mea- surement latency increases to 18-22sec. In some cases its measurement traffic can exceed 10% of the path capacity. IGI (Initial Gap Increasing) [63] borrows from both PRM and PGM models. IGI first finds the turning point at which the packets’ sending rate starts matching their receiving rate. Then it sends a train of packets at that rate and computes the available bandwidth using the probe gap information. The IGI [26] algorithm uses the information about changes in gap values of a packet train to estimate the competing bandwidth on the tight link of the path. The PTR method uses the average rate of the packet train as an estimate of the available bandwidth. The IGI/PTR algorithms send a sequence...

  • Wire Unbundled DS1 Digital Loop This is a designed 4-wire Loop that is provisioned according to industry standards for DS1 or Primary Rate ISDN services and will come standard with a test point, OC, and a DLR. A DS1 Loop may be provisioned over a variety of loop transmission technologies including copper, HDSL-based technology or fiber optic transport systems. It will include a 4-Wire DS1 Network Interface at the End User’s location.

  • Network Interface Device 4.1 The NID is defined as any means of interconnection of end-user customer premises wiring to BellSouth’s distribution plant, such as a cross-connect device used for that purpose. The NID is a single-line termination device or that portion of a multiple-line termination device required to terminate a single line or circuit at the premises. The NID features two independent xxxxxxxx or divisions that separate the service provider’s network from the End User’s on-premises wiring. Each chamber or division contains the appropriate connection points or posts to which the service provider and the End User each make their connections. The NID provides a protective ground connection and is capable of terminating cables such as twisted pair cable. 4.1.1 BellSouth shall permit Al-Call to connect Al-Call ’s loop facilities to on-premises wiring through the BellSouth NID or at any other technically feasible point.

  • Loop Provisioning Involving Integrated Digital Loop Carriers 2.6.1 Where Xxxx has requested an Unbundled Loop and BellSouth uses IDLC systems to provide the local service to the End User and BellSouth has a suitable alternate facility available, BellSouth will make such alternative facilities available to Xxxx. If a suitable alternative facility is not available, then to the extent it is technically feasible, BellSouth will implement one of the following alternative arrangements for Xxxx (e.g. hairpinning): 1. Roll the circuit(s) from the IDLC to any spare copper that exists to the customer premises. 2. Roll the circuit(s) from the IDLC to an existing DLC that is not integrated. 3. If capacity exists, provide "side-door" porting through the switch. 4. If capacity exists, provide "Digital Access Cross Connect System (DACS)- door" porting (if the IDLC routes through a DACS prior to integration into the switch). 2.6.2 Arrangements 3 and 4 above require the use of a designed circuit. Therefore, non- designed Loops such as the SL1 voice grade and UCL-ND may not be ordered in these cases. 2.6.3 If no alternate facility is available, and upon request from Xxxx, and if agreed to by both Parties, BellSouth may utilize its Special Construction (SC) process to determine the additional costs required to provision facilities. Xxxx will then have the option of paying the one-time SC rates to place the Loop.
