# Abstract:

A multi-server $M/M/n$-type queueing system with a bounded total volume and finite queue size is considered. An AQM algorithm with the "accepting'' function is being used to control the arrival process of incoming packets. The stationary queue-size distribution and the loss probability are derived. Numerical examples illustrating theoretical results are attached as well.
