Up until this point I haven't cared all that much about fiber, as most of my observations were that it had "reasonable" buffering and all I could hold in my head was the 802.11 standards. Since cablemodems are well on their way to being fixed, wifi is looking good, and I recently came across an ONT that was actually underbuffered, my holiday reading consisted of pounding through a ton of fiber specs like this one:
https://www.itu.int/rec/dologin_pub.asp?lang=e&id=T-REC-G.988-201711-I!!PDF-E&type=items There's a lot of promising info in this spec starting from page 104. My 1st question is - are there any ONTs that actually do do pause frames? Or providers that configure for them? My second is - what is a cheap way to setup a lab to emulate a good, common, version of gpon e2e? Third - what OS do these things run? Who makes a "good" one? -- I tried to build a better future, a few times: https://wayforward.archive.org/?site=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.icei.org Dave Täht CEO, TekLibre, LLC _______________________________________________ Bloat mailing list [email protected] https://lists.bufferbloat.net/listinfo/bloat
