Impact of Bottleneck Queue on Long Distant TCP Transfer August 25, 2005 NOC-Network Engineering Session Advanced Network Conference in Taipei Masaki Hirabaru (NICT) and Jin Tanaka (KDDI)<masaki@nict.go.jp> <tanaka@kddnet.ad.jp>
APAN Requirements on Transport Advanced ► High Speed International ► Long Distant Difficulty in Congestion Avoidance is in proportion to:Bandwidth-Delay Product (BWDP) Single TCP flowNo fairness considered
Long Distant Rover Control (at least) 7 minutes one way delay Image Command Earth Mars When operator saw collision, it was too late.

Analyzing Advanced TCP Dynamic Behavior in a Real Network(Example: From Tokyo to Indianapolis at 1G bps with HighSpeed TCP) Throughput RTT Window Sizes Packet Losses The graphs were generatedthrough web100. The data was obtained during e-VLBI demonstration at Internet2 Member Meetingin October 2003.

Solutions by Advanced TCPs How can wee foresee collision (queue overflow)? • Loss-Based ► AQM (Advanced Queue Management)Reno, Scalable, High-Speed, BIC, … • Delay-BasedVegas, FAST • Explicit Router NotificationECN, XCP, Quick Start, SIRENS, MaxNet
Queue Management Methods • FIFO (First In First Out) 1 full 2 4 5 4 3 2 1 3 drop 5 6 6 • RED （Random EarlyDetection） 1 threshold 2 4 6 4 3 2 1 3 drop 5 5 6
PAUSE HOLB (Head of Line Blocking) Switch empty blocked 1 fast 1 1 1 1 2 full wait 2 2 2 2 slow full output queue input queue Note: Ethernet flow-control (PAUSE frame in 802.3x) may produce HOLB (Head of line blocking),resulting in less performance at a backbone switch.
Summary • Add an interface to a router. Or, • Use a switch with an appropriate interface queue. • Let’s consider making use of AQM on a router. Future Plan • 10G bps congestion through TransPAC2 and JGN II with large delay (>=100 ms)
