[ns] Difference between red.cc and queue.cc

[#LIM XIAOWEI#]

Hi!

 

There is a question that we would like to seek your expertise on and that is the queue control. We understand and have found the queue control files available in NS-2 such as RED.CC, FAIR QUEUING.CC...and QUEUE.CC . 

However, there are certain areas that we don't quite understand.

1) What is the difference between queue.cc and red.cc since they are both queing methods?( We understand that RED is part of QUEUE hierarchy)

 

2) How do we integrate red.cc into the network we are simulating? Do we save it as a queue.cc file before compiling?

 

       Looking forward to your reply=)

 

       Regards,

       Zoe
