QOS - Implementing Cisco Quality of Service (5643)
This Authorized Cisco 5-day course gives you the knowledge and skillsrequired to design, implement, and troubleshoot Quality of Service (QoS) on anetwork. The course addresses the essential QoS technologies and applicationsfor both Service Provider and Enterprise networks. Successful implementation ofthe techniques taught in this course will have a dramatic impact on criticalnetwork application performance.
Skills Gained
- Building blocks of IP QOS
- Configure AutoQoS on WAN routers and on Catalyst access switches and monitor the results
- Configure FIFO and WFQ queuing on WAN routers and measure and analyze network performance
- Configure WRED on WAN routers to control which traffic is dropped during congestion
- Configure CBWFQ and LLQ on WAN routers to provide bandwidth and latency guarantees
- Configure COS-to-queue mapping and WRR queuing on the Catalyst 2950 switch
Who Can Benefit
Network professionals interested in deploying state-of-the-art QoS techniques to support multimedia traffic would benefit from this course.
