| Nildram introduces Traffic Management to its ADSL offering | | Pipex owned Nildram has joined the ever increasing list of ISPs implementing some form of Traffic Management to their Broadband subscribers and applied it, without warning, from Monday 21st May,
Traffic Management is where, normally at peak times traffic is prioritised according to what it is to improve performance for some services - whilse sacrifising others. This quite often has an impact on gaming - making it worse than useless.
Nildram have not stated what periods the Traffic Management will be implemented in, jsut that its "busy periods".
We will be implementing a new form of traffic management profile, which will dynamically adjust the amount of bandwidth available to certain applications based upon a weighting.
This weighting allows us to preference interactive traffic such us HTTP (Web), VoIP and VPN over non-interactive traffic, such as P2P (peer to peer) and NNTP (Newsgroups). This provides an important quality of service improvement for these applications where delays have a very noticeable effect and we expect that Nildram customers will see improved performance from these applications.
However, at less busy times, when fewer customers are using interactive applications, the remainder of the allocated bandwidth for interactive traffic can be made available for non-interactive traffic. | | | Author: Site Admin | |
