ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for storing a packet including a buffer in which packets are stored. The apparatus includes a mechanism for determining an average buffer fill of the buffer, where the average buffer fill is an average fill state of the buffer. The determining mechanism is connected to the buffer. The apparatus includes a mechanism for calculating a drop probability associated with the packet which identify is the probability the packet will be dropped from a the buffer. The apparatus includes a mechanism for generating a random number. The apparatus includes a mechanism for discarding the packet from the elements if the drop probability is greater in than the random number. A method for access control.
