RED Drop Probability Function
The figure below shows the drop probability versus fill level function with associated parameters.
RED Drop Probability Function:
Min is the fill level where the queue randomly start dropping frames marked with Drop Precedence Level > 0
(yellow frames).
If Max Unit is 'Drop Probability' (the green line), Max controls the drop probability when the fill level is just below
100%.
If Max Unit is 'Fill Level' (the red line), Max controls the fill level where drop probability reaches 100%. This
configuration makes it possible to reserve a portion of the queue exclusively for frames marked with Drop
Precedence Level 0 (green frames). The reserved portion is calculated as (100 - Max) %.
Frames marked with Drop Precedence Level 0 (green frames) are never dropped.
The drop probability for frames increases linearly from zero (at Min average queue filling level) to Max Drop
Probability or Fill Level.
