Subject: [WISPA] Packet Aggregation

Because a lot of traffic crossing our network is in packets smaller than
1500 bytes I have been playing with Mikrotik's M3P to aggregate the smaller
packets together. Throughput wise this seems to work very well and we see a
big improvement on the amount of data we can pass over our wireless
backhaul. The problem is that M3P adds about 15ms of delay in each direction
so you are adding 30ms of delay to most none UDP streams. This is the amount
of time that M3P waits to fill the 1500 byte.

Does anyone know of an alternative system or open source software that does
packet aggregation but is a little more configurable? Ideally I would like
to be able to change the amount of time that the aggregator waits to fill
it's payload and therefore reduce the overall delay.

Cheers,

P.

Re: [WISPA] Packet Aggregation

2005-11-15 Thread Tom DeReggi

Hillarious.

But what really defines who/what a company is? If company A buys company B, 
fires everyone from company A, employs everyone from company B, is company A 
really still company A? I always looked at YDI, as Michael Young, who cashed 
out.  Or is the product line a better definition of what company it is. 
Names can be swapped around anytime. If I buy Microsofts name, and am a two 
person company, would I still be considered Microsoft? Its all very 
confusing.  Maybe its a 2 out of 3 kind of thing. If the product and CEO 
comes, well thats it then.  Or is it really the FUND/credit line that 
defines what the company is or isn't?  Sure you can argue that the real 
definition of a company is the stock holders, but what does that have to do 
with a name?


The front page of Proxim's website has a good news story explaining the 
evolution of the aquisitions.


But clearly a case of an identity crisis. They are smart though, rather than 
keeping their own name as an ego trip, they have always taken the name of 
the most prominent company from a marketing perspective in the aquisitions.

Sure Paul, its called Karlnet, no wait YDI, no wait, Terabeam, no wait,
Proxim, yeah that what it is this week, Turbocell on 802.11a Atheros.  You
can find the information on the www.karlnet.com, nope that's gone now,
www.ydi.com, nope that's gone now, www.terabeam.com, oops that just got
forwarded to www.proxim.com website.  Your only task now is to find 
someone
to sell it to you, then your next task is to find someone that will 
support

it for you.   Whew, that was a lot of work!

I know that Packeteer does it but it's a bit on the expensive side. I'm
