.SH DESCRIPTION
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
CHOKe (CHOose and Keep for responsive flows, CHOose and Kill for unresponsive flows)
 | 
						|
is a classless qdisc designed to both identify and penalize flows that monopolize the
 | 
						|
queue.  CHOKe is a variation of RED, and the configuration is similar to RED.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.SH ALGORITHM
 | 
						|
Once the queue hits a certain average length, a random packet is drawn from the
 | 
						|
queue.  If both the to-be-queued and the drawn packet belong to the same flow,
 | 
						|
both packets are dropped.  Otherwise, if the queue length is still below the maximum length,
 | 
						|
the new packet has a configurable chance of being marked (which may mean dropped).
 | 
						|
If the queue length exceeds
 | 
						|
.BR max ,
 | 
						|
the new packet will always be marked (or dropped).
 | 
						|
If the queue length exceeds
 | 
						|
.BR limit ,
 | 
						|
the new packet is always dropped.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The marking probability computation is the same as used by the RED qdisc.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.SH PARAMETERS
 | 
						|
The parameters are the same as for RED, except that RED uses bytes whereas choke
 | 
						|
counts packets. See
 | 
						|
.BR tc-red (8)
 | 
						|
for a description.
