Active queue management
ID: active-queue-management
Active Queue Management (AQM) refers to a set of network management techniques used to prevent network congestion by actively managing the packets that are queued in routers or switches. Instead of simply dropping packets when the queue becomes full (which is a passive approach), AQM techniques involve monitoring queue lengths and actively controlling the flow of packets to maintain optimal performance and minimize packet loss.
