	Title           : Byte and Packet Congestion Notification
	Author(s)       : B. Briscoe, J. Manner

This memo concerns dropping or marking packets using active queue
management (AQM) such as random early detection (RED) or pre-
congestion notification (PCN).  We give three strong recommendations:
(1) packet size should be taken into account when transports read
congestion indications, (2) packet size should not be taken into
account when network equipment creates congestion signals (marking,
dropping), and therefore (3) the byte-mode packet drop variant of the
RED AQM algorithm that drops fewer small packets should not be used.
