What about applications that are reordering-tolerant, yet still latency critical? Yep, the LE semantics are basically that you're expecting to just utilize any spare capacity (which may not be available for some longer periods). Re-ordering of LE-packets shouldn't normally be the case as packets of a particular flow should all be in the same LE queue. > E.g., if I use a protocol that can hand over messages out of order (e.g. SCTP, and imagine it running over UDP if that helps), then the benefit of this is typically to get messages delivered faster (without receiver-side HOL blocking)). > But then, wouldn't it be good to have a way to tell the network "I don't care about ordering" ? > > It seems to me that we'd need a new codepoint for that. Too few DiffServ codepoints for too many purposes available. :-) Most of the DiffServ PHBs are observing the recommendation of RFC 2474: "It is RECOMMENDED that PHB implementations do not introduce any packet re-ordering within a microflow." > But, it also seems to me that this couldn't get standardised because that standard would embrace a layer violation (caring about a transport connection), even though that has been implemented for ages. Just from a logical perspective, a re-ordering property could be _one_ attribute of a per-hop behavior (PHB), but a PHB has very likely further properties that specify the packet forwarding treatment. So probably re-ordering is probably often orthogonal to other PHB features. But having a new (best-effort + re-ordering tolerant) PHB could be useful for some cases... Regards, Roland
