Abstract
Traffic shapers by preventing congestion and smoothing the traffic, play
an important role in realizing the traffic control schemes employed in high
speed networks to ensure the Quality of Service (QoS) requirements of the
application. In this report, we present a generic architecture for
programmable traffic shaper for high speed networks. The programmability
of the proposed architecture is illustrated by implementing some of the
existing traffic shaping schemes. The architectural design issues of the
proposed scheme are described and discussed.
