Abstract :
The bandwidth balancing method (BBM) introduced into the latest versions of the DQDB protocol is discussed. An extended analysis is presented of the behavior of the protocol with the BBM incorporated, assuming that more than one priority level is active in the network. The results are oriented towards evaluation of the effect the BBM has on access delay and bandwidth sharing in overload conditions
