A Flexible Ethernet Calendar Allocation Based on Client Traffic

Abstract Aiming at the problem of low link bandwidth utilization in the current FlexE client slot allocation mechanism, a FlexE calendar bandwidth allocation mechanism that is compatible with the client data transmission rate is proposed, and the LSTM algorithm is used to predict network traffic data, and according to the client priority and traffic prediction results, the client is allocated with slots. Experiments show that, compared with the traditional FlexE slot allocation mechanism, the method proposed in this paper can make the bandwidth resource utilization rate reach 82.8%.
