TRAFFIC SHAPING METHOD AND DEVICE

摘要

Provided are a traffic shaping method and device, relating to the field of communications. The method includes: a first data packet dequeuing from a sending queue; refreshing the token bucket or leaky bucket corresponding to the sending queue according to a first time, a second time and the bandwidth preset for the sending queue, wherein the first time is the time when the first data packet dequeues from the sending queue, the second time is the time when a second data packet dequeues from the sending queue, and the second data packet is a data packet which has dequeued most recently before the first data packet dequeues from the sending queue. The device includes: a dequeuing module and a refreshing module. The present invention can reduce the refreshing frequency of the token bucket or leaky bucket corresponding to each sending queue and ensure the token bucket or leaky bucket corresponding to each sending queue can be refreshed.
