Administrator Guide
• If the transmission endpoints are ECN-capable and traffic is congested, and the WRED algorithm determines
that the packet should have been dropped based on the drop probability, the packet is transmitted and
marked so the routers know the system is congested and can slow transmission rates.
• If neither endpoint is ECN-capable, the packet may be dropped based on the WRED drop probability. This
behavior is the identical treatment that a packet receives when WRED is enabled without ECN configured on
the router.
When you enable wred ecn, and the number of packets in the queue is above the maximum threshold, packets
are dropped based on the drop probability. This behavior is the identical treatment a packet receives when WRED
is enabled without ECN configured on the router.

Pre-defined Profiles: wred_drop, wred-ge_y, wred_ge_g, wred_teng_y, wred_teng_g.
Defaults The five pre-defined WRED profiles. When you configure a new profile, the minimum and maximum threshold
defaults to predefined wred_ge_g values.
