Traffic flowing from .Va lower to .Va upper is considered .Sy upstream traffic. .Sh MODE OF OPERATION Data received on a hook - both in upstream and downstream direction - is put into an inbound queue. If inbound queue is full, discard one frame depending on dropping policy (from the head or from the tail of the queue). .Pp There are three mutually exclusive modes for the input queue: .Bl -tag -width foo .It Dv "First In First Out (FIFO)" A single queue holds packets in chronological order. .It Dv Weighted fair queuing (WFQ) There are multiple queues for different traffic flows (based on IPv4 IPs). The longest queue is truncated if necessary. This approach assumes that the stalling flow is the flow with the most packets currently on hold. .It Dv Deficit Round Robin (DRR) This mode is similar to WFQ, but packets are not taken out in strict chronological order. In principle oldest packets come first, but not too many packets from the same flow. .El .Pp It is possible to configure a duplication probability. As the dice decides, the currently active packet stays in the queue while a copy of the packet is sent out. Nothing prevents a packet from being duplicated multiple times. .Pp Packets are dropped with an increasing probability depending on the size of the packet, if a .Va ber (bit error rate) is configured. .Pp Surviving packets are delayed by the time the packet would need to travel through a link of the configured bandwidth. If this outbound queue is full, the packet is dropped. .Sh CONTROL MESSAGES This node type supports the generic control messages and the following specific messages. .Bl -tag -width foo .It Dv NGM_PIPE_SET_CFG Pq Ic setcfg Set node configuration to the one specified in .Vt "struct ng_pipe_cfg" .Pp Note: To set a value to zero, specify -1 instead.
