<p class="x_MsoNormal">Have you read the description of the RED algorithm? Are you sure you are generating appropriate traffic to cause a drop? That algorithm seems like it would be difficult to control/predict the drops accurately for a test. If you are sending
a constant traffic volume to it, it never will drop.</p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal">If you are just testing, you may want to go with a simpler algorithm where you can more easily control when/how many are being dropped.</p>
