This memo defines a Time Sliding Window Three Colour Marker (TSWTCM),
which can be used as a component in a Diff-Serv traffic conditioner
[RFC2475, RFC2474].  The marker is intended to mark packets that will
be treated by the Assured Forwarding (AF) Per Hop Behaviour (PHB)
[AFPHB] in downstream routers. The TSWTCM meters a traffic stream and
marks packets to be either green, yellow or red based on the measured
throughput relative to two specified rates: Committed Target Rate
(CTR) and Peak Target Rate (PTR).

This memo defines an Experimental Protocol for the Internet community.
It does not specify an Internet standard of any kind.  Discussion and
suggestions for improvement are requested.  Distribution of this memo
