Abstract:
Along with the development of Internet technology, the increasing network services produce a large number of traffic. Especially UDP traffic data is dramatically increasing, since the P2P and steaming technologies have been used widely. It's different with TCP, UDP protocol does not have the ability to control congestion. UDP traffic is easily jamming the network link and cause unfair packet transmission or Dropping. In this project, we use OPNET Modeler to analyze the performance of first-in-first-out (FIFO) queuing, priority queuing (PQ), and weighted-fair queuing (WFQ), which are deployed in IP networks. Various simulation scenarios are designed to compare performance of FIFO, PQ, and WFQ and explains which is a better method of queuing.
