MultiTokenBucketMeter¶

simple module MultiTokenBucketMeter

Labels packets according to the first token bucket that contains the required number of tokens. If no such token bucket is found then the default label is attached to the packet.

Inheritance diagram¶

Known subclasses¶

Name	Type	Description
DualRateThreeColorMeter	simple module	This packet meter module measures the packet flow that is passing through using two token buckets. The meter attaches a LabelsTag to each packet with either green, yellow, or red color depending on which token bucket contains the required number of tokens for the packet.
SingleRateThreeColorMeter	simple module	This packet meter module measures the packet flow that is passing through using two token buckets. The meter attaches a LabelsTag to each packet with either green, yellow, or red color depending on which token bucket contains the required number of tokens for the packet.

Extends¶

Name	Type	Description
PacketMeterBase	simple module	Base module for various packet meter modules. Derived modules must implement a single `meterPacket()` function which meters the flow of and attaches the required tags.

Parameters¶

Name	Type	Default value	Description
displayStringTextFormat	string	“contains %n tk\nmetered %p pk (%l)”	Determines the text that is written on top of the submodule, supports displaying pars, watches, and module-specific information
buckets	object		Array of objects specifying the token buckets, see TokenBucketMeter(1,:ref:2 <neddoc-inet-queueing-meter-tokenbucketmeter>) for parameters
tokenConsumptionPerPacket	double	0	How many tokens are consumed per packet
tokenConsumptionPerBit	double	1	How many tokens are consumed per bit
defaultLabel	string	“”	The label that is attached to packets if there are not enough tokens in the bucket, no label by default
labelPriority	object	[]	The list of labels in the order of priority, if specified packets can only be promoted in this order
