A new Request for Comments is now available in online RFC libraries. RFC 8034 Title: Active Queue Management (AQM) Based on Proportional Integral Controller Enhanced PIE) for Data-Over-Cable Service Interface Specifications (DOCSIS) Cable Modems Author: G. White, R. Pan Status: Informational Stream: IETF Date: February 2017 Mailbox: g.white@cablelabs.com, ropan@cisco.com Pages: 17 Characters: 33326 Updates/Obsoletes/SeeAlso: None I-D Tag: draft-ietf-aqm-docsis-pie-02.txt URL: https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc8034 DOI: 10.17487/RFC8034 Cable modems based on Data-Over-Cable Service Interface Specifications (DOCSIS) provide broadband Internet access to over one hundred million users worldwide. In some cases, the cable modem connection is the bottleneck (lowest speed) link between the customer and the Internet. As a result, the impact of buffering and bufferbloat in the cable modem can have a significant effect on user experience. The CableLabs DOCSIS 3.1 specification introduces requirements for cable modems to support an Active Queue Management (AQM) algorithm that is intended to alleviate the impact that buffering has on latency-sensitive traffic, while preserving bulk throughput performance. In addition, the CableLabs DOCSIS 3.0 specifications have also been amended to contain similar requirements. This document describes the requirements on AQM that apply to DOCSIS equipment, including a description of the "DOCSIS-PIE" algorithm that is required on DOCSIS 3.1 cable modems. This document is a product of the Active Queue Management and Packet Scheduling Working Group of the IETF. INFORMATIONAL: This memo provides information for the Internet community.
