What does the Leaky Bucket Algorithm do?
What does the Leaky Bucket Algorithm do?
- Transmits packets without any control
- Converts an uneven flow of packets from user processes into an even flow onto the network (correct)
- Allows unlimited packets per clock tick onto the network
- Discards packets if the queue is full
What happens if a packet arrives at the queue when it is full in the Leaky Bucket Algorithm?
What happens if a packet arrives at the queue when it is full in the Leaky Bucket Algorithm?
- The packet is given priority over others
- The packet is split and transmitted
- The packet is held in a separate buffer
- The packet is discarded (correct)
What is the role of the leaky bucket in the Leaky Bucket Algorithm?
What is the role of the leaky bucket in the Leaky Bucket Algorithm?
- To control the rate of packet transmission (correct)
- To store unlimited packets
- To prioritize certain types of packets
- To allow unlimited packet transmission
