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 and
respond to 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.
