Abstract:
Pseudowires (PWs) have become a common mechanism for tunneling
traffic, and may be found competing for network resources both with
other PWs and with non-PW traffic, such as TCP/IP flows. It is thus
worthwhile specifying under what conditions such competition is safe,
i.e., the PW traffic does not significantly harm other traffic or
contribute more than it should to congestion. We conclude that PWs
transporting responsive traffic behave as desired without the need
for additional mechanisms. For inelastic PWs (such as TDM PWs) we
derive a bound under which such PWs consume no more network capacity
than a TCP flow.
