Dave Täht was my initial motivation to get serious about getting into low level networking more than 8 years ago. Ever since then I’ve had the honor to co-develop various systems on multi terabit ISP routers. I’m really thankful for the insights he provided as I was trying to figure out how to configure WRED hardware blocks in our network ASICs. Men like Dave was one in hundred million if that. May he be forever remembered and his work live on forever.
- topranks 2y agoSorry to hijack this but your role has me curious. What - if any - are the barriers to implementing FQ-Codel or a similar scheme in forwarding ASICs? To my mind with limited knowledge managing all those separate queues sounds like it could be challenging in hardware.
- i_am_a_peasant 2y agowoulda been cool to see, in general core ISP routers care more about traffic classes than per flow fairness. fq codel is definitely the way to go on the consumer end though
