Configuring Modular QoS Congestion Avoidance
Congestion avoidance techniques monitor traffic flow in an effort to anticipate and avoid congestion at
common network bottlenecks. Avoidance techniques are implemented before congestion occurs as compared
with congestion management techniques that control congestion after it has occurred.
Congestion avoidance is achieved through packet dropping. Cisco IOS XR software supports these quality
of service (QoS) congestion avoidance techniques that drop packets:
• Random early detection (RED)
• Weighted random early detection (WRED)
• Tail drop
The module describes the concepts and tasks related to these congestion avoidance techniques.
