Hands on Cisco Labs – Quality of Service (QoS) Fundamentals

What you'll learn
What QoS is and why it's important in enterprise networks
Key QoS concepts like classification, marking, queuing, policing, and shaping
Step-by-step configuration of QoS using commands on both switches and routers
Traffic classification using access control lists (ACLs) and class maps
Marking and prioritizing traffic using DSCP and CoS values
Implementing traffic queuing strategies such as Low Latency Queuing (LLQ), Weighted Fair Queuing (WFQ), and Class-Based Weighted Fair Queuing (CBWFQ)
Understanding how to manage and monitor different queues to ensure efficient traffic handling
Configuring traffic policing to enforce rate limits and traffic shaping to smooth traffic bursts
Real-world examples of configuring policing and shaping on interfaces to control bandwidth usage
Implementing advanced QoS techniques like Network-Based Application Recognition (NBAR) to dynamically classify and prioritize applications
Using AutoQoS to automate QoS configurations on switches and routers
Troubleshooting and monitoring QoS implementations to ensure optimal performance
Requirements
Basic understanding of networking concepts (IP addressing, subnets, etc.).
Enthusiasm to engage in lab-heavy, hands-on learning.
Access to a computer with internet connectivity.
Familiarity with Cisco IOS commands is helpful but not required.
Interest in learning practical Cisco configurations.
A desire to improve network configuration and troubleshooting skills.
