Abstract: Channel traffic in Internet Protocol (IP) networks may be placed in priority queues upon receipt. Providing an efficient way for operators to use the channel may enable the operator to better make decisions for configuring the priority queues, maximizing effectiveness. For example, measuring a queue latency and making a queue latency visible to an operator may enable a better configuration of priority queues. Further, an improved latency metric may assist an operator to judge a relative effect that priority assignments have on traffic over a channel. Such techniques may be applied to an out-of-band (OOB) channel to include an assessment of parameters important for optimizing the configuration of priority queues in a downstream channel. For example, an improved latency metric for assisting an operator to judge the relative effect that priority assignments have on traffic is a parameter assessed for better use of an OOB channel.

Abstract translation: 为运营商提供使用带外（OOB）频道的有效方式可以使运营商能够更好地做出关于如何配置优先级队列以达到最大效果的决策。 用于有效使用OOB信道的技术包括对用于优化下行信道中的优先级队列的配置重要的参数的评估。 例如，用于辅助操作者判断优先级分配对业务量的相对影响的改进的等待时间度量是评估用于更好地使用OOB信道的参数。 此外，测量队列等待时间并使得队列延迟对于操作者可见可以使得能够更好地配置优先级队列。
