Re: [RE] Overprovisioning (was Re: [RE] CE applications)
Henry,
I agree. If the objective is as you describe, we've got some network
engineering to do.
Although I am an engineer and I am anxious to get to work on a solution, I
think we should be sure our technical objective is driven by application
requirements. I would like to review the applications that have imposed this
objective on us.
Kevin

Things are different, if the objective of Residential Ethernet include
(as I mentioned before)
- constant, sub-millisecond latency for real-time traffic
- zero jitter for real-time traffic
- zero packet loss for real-time traffic
Such objectives will be very difficult, if not impossible, to achieve
with only a combination of admission control, ingress traffic/rate
shaping, and priority queuing. I think this group need to highlight
these objectives in order to justify works for enhancement of layer 2
protocols by some iso/sync-chronous schemes.
