ECN marking, probes
Using RFC 3168 in a local domain, sending ECN probe packets
Advantages
Uses standard ECN procedure
DSCP remarking is not required
Disadvantages
Slow response (depending on the frequency of probes)
Additional load to network
No association between probes and the end-to-end sessions
Terminating/preempting the required number of flows is difficult (no indication of the per flow congestion percentage)
How to distinguish between probe packets and other ECN packets?
Using ECN additional procedures needed:
Discovering if Ingress and Egress are ECN capable
Define the probe packets
