Abstract |
Traffic meter algorithms serve as a means of examining traffic stream’s conformance with service level agreement between customers (traffic sources) and Internet Service provider at the edge router of a differentiated service domain for proper quality of service admission control. This paper presented comparative analysis of variants of token bucket meter algorithms for QoS router using user datagram protocol as traffic agents and exponential ON/OFF as traffic generator. The research adopted simulation technique to carry out the design of network models or topologies using the same parameter setting to implement the algorithm of token bucket variants of traffic meter. The following metrics were used for the evaluation: throughput, fairness rate, loss rate and one-way packet delay. The evaluated results were ranked and further subjected to 2-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) model to indicate the significant differences among the traffic meter algorithms. Based on ranking system, TRTCM was ranked first in terms of throughput (with 67117) and fairness rate (with 0.2586) and TBM was ranked first in terms of loss rate (with 74.003) and one-way packet delay (with 0.09304). The 2-way ANOVA model showed the significant differences among the traffic meter algorithms considered for the simulation.. |
