End-To-End QoS Network Design

Course Code: CS-QOS

This 5-day course focuses on complex traffic mixes with increased usage of mobile devices, wireless network access, advanced communications, and video. It reflects the growing heterogeneity of video traffic, including passive streaming video, interactive video, and immersive videoconferences. It also addresses shifting bandwidth constraints and congestion points; improved hardware, software, and tools; and emerging QoS applications in network security. The course introduces QoS technologies in high-to-mid-level technical detail, including protocols, tools, and relevant standards. New QoS demands and requirements are examined, reasons to reevaluate current QoS designs are identified, and new strategic design recommendations are presented. In addition, deep technical detail on-campus wired and wireless QoS design; next-generation wiring closets; QoS design for data centers, Internet edge, WAN edge, and branches; QoS for IPsec VPNs, and more are discussed.

QoS is a comprehensive and complex subject, one that entails a significant amount of fundamental technological concepts as well as platform-specific implementation detail. Therefore it is often valuable for network administrators to have a single common reference on the subject, such as this course, which overviews all the relevant tools, presents various end-to-end strategies and details platform-specific design recommendations.

- Network administrators tasked with deploying QoS technologies.

- IT professionals such as system administrators, audio/video specialists, VoIP specialist and operational staff

- Master a proven, step-by-step best-practice approach to successful QoS deployment

- Implement Cisco-validated designs related to new and emerging applications

- Apply best practices for classification, marking, policing, shaping, markdown, and congestion management/avoidance

- Leverage the new Cisco Application Visibility and Control feature-set to perform deep-packet inspection to recognize more than 1000 different applications.

- Use Medianet architecture elements specific to QoS configuration, monitoring, and control

- Design wireless networks to support voice and video using a Cisco centralized or converged access WLAN

- Optimize QoS at the enterprise customer edge

- Utilize new industry standards and QoS technologies, including IETF RFC 4594, IEEE 802.1Q-2005, HQF, and NBAR2
