IOS 12.4 is quite old.  I do not expect current documentation to have
improved significantly, but IOS 12.4 was a thing well before CoDel existed.

Looking at the current manual set, it emphasizes "Weighted Random Early Detection", and does not discuss the token-bucket algorithm at all, though pages describing QOS say it is used.
