Service Provider Quality of Service

Tags:
quality of service

Overview Quality of Service (QoS) is defined as the measure of performance for a transmission system that reflects its transmission quality and service availability. Service availability is a crucial foundation element of QoS. Before any QoS can be implemented successfully, the network infrastructure must be designed to be highly available. This paper provides design guidance, and best practice procedures and configurations, for deployment of QoS in the service provider network. The objective of this paper is to ensure that enterprise customer requirements are met and that the service provider has a validated way to provision the edge and the core to accommodate these requirements.

Peter Cochrane's Blog: Fat cat telcos are killing the net
