// This program simulates the following topology:
//
// 1000 Mbps 10Mbps 1000 Mbps
// Sender -------------- R1 -------------- R2 -------------- Receiver
// 5ms 10ms 5ms
//
// The link between R1 and R2 is a bottleneck link with 10 Mbps. All other
// links are 1000 Mbps.
//
// This program runs by default for 100 seconds and creates a new directory
// called 'bbr-results' in the ns-3 root directory. The program creates one
// sub-directory called 'pcap' in 'bbr-results' directory (if pcap generation
// is enabled) and three .dat files.
//
// (1) 'pcap' sub-directory contains six PCAP files:
// * bbr-0-0.pcap for the interface on Sender
// * bbr-1-0.pcap for the interface on Receiver
// * bbr-2-0.pcap for the first interface on R1
// * bbr-2-1.pcap for the second interface on R1
// * bbr-3-0.pcap for the first interface on R2
// * bbr-3-1.pcap for the second interface on R2
// (2) cwnd.dat file contains congestion window trace for the sender node
// (3) throughput.dat file contains sender side throughput trace (throughput is in Mbit/s)
// (4) queueSize.dat file contains queue length trace from the bottleneck link
//
// BBR algorithm enters PROBE_RTT phase in every 10 seconds. The congestion
// window is fixed to 4 segments in this phase with a goal to achieve a better
// estimate of minimum RTT (because queue at the bottleneck link tends to drain
// when the congestion window is reduced to 4 segments).
//
// The congestion window and queue occupancy traces output by this program show
// periodic drops every 10 seconds when BBR algorithm is in PROBE_RTT phase.
