My example simulation code is at the bottom of this email if someone wants to see it.
The following is a snippet form TCSIMs output.
0.602000 E : 0x80bc080 40 : inputB_eth0: 45000028 00000000 40060000 ... 0.602000 D : 0x80bc080 40 : inputB_eth0: 45000028 00000000 40060000 ... 0.602003 E : 0x80bbfd8 40 : router_eth2: 45000028 00000000 40060000 ... 0.602003 * : 0x80bbfd8 40 : router_eth2: enqueue returns CN (2) 0.602003 E : 0x80bc080 40 : router_eth2: 45000028 00000000 40060000 ... 0.602003 * : 0x80bc080 40 : router_eth2: enqueue returns CN (2) 0.604000 E : 0x80bbfd8 40 : inputA_eth0: 45000028 00000000 40060000 .
As I hoped, packets seem to get dropped as marked by '*' when the interface gets congested.
On closer inspection (with -v) tcsim output is:
0.182000 D : 0x80bc0a0 40 : inputB_eth0: 45000028 00000000 40060000 ... 0.182003 E : 0x80bbff8 40 : router_eth2: 45000028 00000000 40060000 ... 0.182003 e : 0x80bbff8 40 : <1> red (2:0) returns CN (2) 0.182003 e : 0x80bbff8 40 : <0> dsmark (1:0) returns CN (2) 0.182003 * : 0x80bbff8 40 : router_eth2: enqueue returns CN (2) 0.182003 E : 0x80bc0a0 40 : router_eth2: 45000028 00000000 40060000 ... 0.182003 e : 0x80bc0a0 40 : <1> red (2:0) returns CN (2) 0.182003 e : 0x80bc0a0 40 : <0> dsmark (1:0) returns CN (2) 0.182003 * : 0x80bc0a0 40 : router_eth2: enqueue returns CN (2) 0.184000 E : 0x80bbff8 40 : inputA_eth0: 45000028 00000000 40060000 ...
I was exspecting the '*' to now print as 'x' to indicate a dropped packet rather than some error occuring!
The network setup looks something like this
|inputA_eth0|--100 Mbs------]
]----|router_eth2|---10 Bs------|output_eth1| |inputB_eth0|--100 Mbs------]
RED is added router_eth2, router_eth2 is set as a 10 Bs interface to force some congestion.
Anyone know what's going on? What does "router_eth2: enqueue returns CN (2)" mean?
Any help is much appreciated.
