Throughput limitation mechanism
The distribution of the network resource distribution resources between the traffic flows can be performed not only by prioritization, but also using the throughput limitation mechanism. In this case, the bitrate of the stream cannot exceed the threshold level set by the network administrator.
...
The throughput limitation principle is to constantly measure the throughput of the data stream intensity and to apply restrictions if the intensity this value exceeds the set threshold (Figure 16a,b). The throughput limitation in Infinet devices is performed according to the Token Bucket algorithm, where all data packets above the throughput threshold are discarded. As a result, there will appear losses, as described above.
