Traffic Shaping Networks

  • Author(s) / Creator(s)
  • Traffic shaping is a way to help increase network performance by controlling the amount of data that flows into and out of the network. Traffic is categorized, queued, and directed according to network policies. Intelligent shaping schemes can guarantee a particular Quality of Service (often measured in jitter, packet loss, and latency) for an application or a user while still allowing other traffic to use all remaining bandwidth.
