[Fwd: Re: [ippm] a question on 'speeds']
Victor,
Is there a good reference to the definition of the words: bandwidth,
rate, capacity, speed?
In some way I want to put in a document a few things:
. the actual bit/s a user can sent of the link: Here Available
Bandwidth, Bottleneck bandwidth but also bulk transfer capacity (tcp)
come into thought. But what is the best word here?
. we have an interface speed, so something that is physically determined
by a clock speed). Is that speed or rate or ???
Any help in finding defined terms can help me.
Look at:
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-ippm-bw-capacity-04.txt
(And please speak up if you see anything missing there).
Henk
Thanks.
All the best,
Victor
