Abstract: A small form-factor pluggable (SFP) transceiver is detected to be plugged into an SFP port of the network router following a bootup of the network router. Information on one or more device features of the SFP transceiver is obtained from the SFP transceiver plugged into the SFP port of the network router. Subsequently, a port configuration policy that corresponds to the one or more device features of the SFP transceiver and one or more router parameters of the network router is applied to the SFP port of the network router.

Abstract: The dynamic proportioning of a maximum queue size of a data transport device queue based on throughput parameters may decrease routing latency of a data transport device. A maximum queue size parameter for a data queue may be calculated based on at least a plurality of throughput parameters during routing of data traffic from a data source device to a data recipient device. Subsequently, a maximum queue size of the data queue may be decreased according to the maximum queue size parameter to prevent enqueuing of incoming service frames into the data queue. The lack of enqueueing of the incoming service frames may cause the data source device to retransmit the one or more incoming service frames to the data transport device, instead of allowing the one or more incoming service frames to be enqueued and trapped in the data queue by additional incoming service frames.
