Question

RED and WRED are both congestion avoidance mechanisms that can be used to avoid global TCP synchronization. RED (Random Early Detection) and WRED (Weighted Random Early Detection) are both active queue management (AQM) algorithms that drop packets before the queue is full, in order to prevent congestion. This helps to avoid the "synchronized" behavior of TCP, where all TCP connections slow down at the same time.
