Two Rate Three Color Marker (trTCM)
The trTCM meters an IP packet stream and marks its packet the one among green,
yellow, and red using Peak Information Rate (PIR) and its associated Peak Burst Size
(PBS) and Committed Information Rate (CIR) and its associated Committed Burst Size
(CBS). A packet is marked red if it exceeds the PIR. Otherwise, it is marked either yellow
or green depending on whether it exceeds or does not exceed CIR. The trTCM is useful
for ingress policing of a service, where a peak rate needs to be enforced separately from
a committed rate.
