This report concentrates on specific requirements and goals of the research networks supported by ANSNET, but applies to any TCP dominated high speed WAN and in particular those striving to support high speed end-to-end flows. Measurements have been made under conditions intended to better understand performance barriers imposed by network equipment queueing capacities and queue drop strategies.The IBM RS/6000 based routers currently supporting ANSNET performed very well in these tests. Measurements have been made with the current software and performance enhanced software. Single TCP flows are able to achieve 40 Mb/s and competing multiple TCP flows achieve over 41 Mb/s link utilization on 44.7 Mb/s DS3 links with delays comparable to US cross continent ANSNET delays. Congestion collapse is demonstrated with intentionally reduced queueing capacity and using window sizes much larger than optimal.A variation of Floyd and Jacobson's Random Early Detection (RED) algorithm [1] is tested. Performance improved with the use of RED for tests involving multiple flows. With RED and queueing capacity at or above the delay bandwidth product, congestion collapse is avoided, allowing the maximum window size to safely be set arbitrarily high.Queueing capacity greater than or equal to the delay bandwidth product and RED are recommended. RED provides performance improvement in all but the single flow case, but cannot substitute for adequate queueing capacity, particularly if high speed flows are to be supported.
