Cisco® Implementing Cisco® Quality of Service v2.5 (QOS)

Implementing Cisco Quality of Service (QoS) v2.5 course provides you with in-depth knowledge of quality of service (QoS) requirements; conceptual models such as Best-Effort, Integrated Services (IntServ), and Differentiated Services (DiffServ); and the implementation of QoS on Cisco IOS platforms. The curriculum covers the theory of QoS, design issues, and configuration of various QoS mechanisms to facilitate the creation of effective QoS administrative policies. Case studies and lab activities included in the course help learners apply the concepts that are mastered in individual modules to real-life scenarios.

Learning Objectives

At course completion students will be able to:

  • Explain the need for QoS, describe the fundamentals of QoS policy, and identify and describe the different models that are used for ensuring QoS in a network
  • Explain the use of MQC and AutoQoS to implement QoS on the network and describe some of the mechanisms used to monitor QoS implementations
  • Given a converged network and a policy defining QoS requirements, classify and mark network traffic to implement the policy
  • Use Cisco QoS queuing mechanisms to manage network congestion
  • Use Cisco QoS congestion avoidance mechanisms to reduce the effects of congestion on the network
  • Use Cisco QoS traffic policing and traffic shaping mechanisms to effectively limit the rate of network traffic
  • Given a low speed WAN link, use Cisco link efficiency mechanisms to improve the badwidth efficiency of the link
  • Describe the recommended best practices and methods used for end-to-end QoS deployment in the enterprise
