Don't forget "shape fecn-adapt". This depends on the question. (ATP?)

Weaker? Not sure where your thoughts are headed.
Imagine a unidirectional path. (A multimedia broadcast, for example)
Most all of the data flowing in one direction.
How would a BECN be sent from the destination?
Answer: It would not, that is where FECN comes into the mix.

As far as GTS - I would choose another option if permitted.

> But, if you just want to react to BECN, FRTS is good enough?

If you want to "react" to BECN, then FRTS will do that (legacy or MQC)

> However, "traffic-shape adapt-fecn" doesn't even say if it reacts to BECN.

Sure it does "shape fecn-adapt"

any thing?

If we said "fecn-ignore" that would be like not saying anything at all...
What other options did you have in mind?
(Just kidding - seriously, don't think too much on/about this)

> Are we going to do wording style match-up in the lab ?

I have no idea what you are trying to say here, sorry.

Skru the class, get as much rest as U can.
If U take care of your mind and body, "the pain" will take care of itself.

> What am I doing ????

Trying to answer too many questions at the last minute - relax.
You should know the Doc CD very well by now.
As there will be no search engine available when you sit, as was in previous
attempts Google-up anything you feel necessary.
(again, I'll offer care for your mind and body 1st - so what you DO know does
not get blacked-out)
