This paper investigates an influence of different SRD structures on a maximum delay value for queued LRD traffic with usage of an envelope analysis. A FARIMA process is used as a traffic model since it can model both SRD and LRD structures independently. A FGN process is used as a reference of LRD traffic due to its relative simplicity. A drop probability is computed as a function of a buffer size that in turn is determined as a maximum delay function. All computations are performed with a support of an envelope process theory. A similarity between theoretical and simulations trends has been shown. An influence of an SRD structure for two different FARIMA models has been analysed for different network parameters.
