Implementing Cisco Quality of Service (QoS)

Upon successful completion of the Implementing Cisco Quality of Service (QoS) Training course, you 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 on the network and describe some of the mechanisms used to monitor QoS implementations • Use Cisco QoS queing 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 bandwidth efficiency of the link • Describe the recommended best practices and methods used for end-to-end QoS deployment in the enterprise
