[RE] Bandwidth at any speed presentation
Unfortunately I was unable to attend the last meeting but I have been
following the discussions on the ResE mailing list with interest.
I have a question on the presentation made by John Gildred at the last
meeting. I'm not sure what is meant by an unmanaged stream (slide 4).
Do you mean a stream with unmarked packets (no priority assigned)? If
thats the case, since switches forward unmarked packets at the default
(lowest) priority the scenario you depict on slide 5 would not happen
as the unmarked packets would be assigned priority P8 rather than P1.
