QOS (Implementing Cisco® QoS)

The Implementing Cisco Quality of Service (QOS) v2.1 course gives you the knowledge and skills required to design, implement, and troubleshoot Quality of Service (QoS) on a network. The course combines the key elements of the previous DQoS v1.0 and QoS v2.0 Cisco courses, to address the essential QoS technologies and applications for both Service Provider and Enterprise networks. Successful implementation of the techniques taught in this course will have a dramatic impact on critical network application performance.

Why Take QoS from The Academy?

We've enhanced our labs beyond what you'll find in a standard Authorized Cisco QoS course. Students work with real VoIP and real data rather than simulated voice and data. Labs include voice calls between Cisco IP phones and HTTP web page downloads and FTP file transfers from a server to student workgroup PCs. Traffic generators are used to inject additional simulated traffic into the lab environment to cause network congestion.

New enhancements include:

Testing Voice Quality

• Students make voice calls, listen to real voice quality, and observe the effects of delay and jitter rather than relying on pings to test voice quality.
• We offer students a real world experience with IP telephones in place of a "what if" exercise offered in standard lab situations.

QoS on Data Applications

Students use their workgroup PCs to download web pages and FTP files from a server. They can observe the benefits of QoS for data applications on congested networks and see web page refreshes while observing FTP file transfers in real time.In the standard QoS course, students look at counters on their routers to observe the effects of QoS on data applications.

Real Phones in Labs

• We've added real IP telephones to the QoS lab exercises. In the RTP header compression lab or the Link Fragmentation and Interleave lab, students can not only hear the results, but can display drop and jitter counters on the phone itself.
• The standard QoS course does not offer telephones in the labs. Rather, students s rely on counter statistics on the routers to judge what voice calls will sound like - a method that alters their perception of the effect on voice quality.
• Call Manager Express is employed in our labs to control the student IP telephones.

What You'll Learn

• The building blocks of IP QOS
• To configure AutoQoS on WAN routers and on Catalyst access switches and monitor the results
• To configure FIFO and WFQ queuing on WAN routers and measure and analyze network performance
• To configure CBWFQ and LLQ on WAN routers to provide bandwidth and latency guarantees
• To configure COS-to-queue mapping and WRR queuing on the Catalyst 2950 switch

Who Needs to Attend

Network professionals interested in deploying state-of-the-art QoS techniques to support multimedia traffic would benefit from this course.
