What role do network devices play in the IntServ QoS model?
Network devices ensure that resources are available before traffic is allowed to be sent by a host through the network.
Network devices provide a best-effort approach to forwarding traffic.
Network devices are configured to service multiple classes of traffic and handle traffic as it may arrive.
Network devices use QoS on a hop-by-hop basis to provide excellent scalability.
Network devices ensure that resources are available before traffic is allowed to be sent by a host through the network.
Which device would be classified as a trusted endpoint?
Switch
Router
Firewall
IP phone
IP phone
Under which condition does congestion occur on a converged network with voice, video, and data traffic?

If video traffic requests more bandwidth than voice traffic requests
If voice traffic latency begins to decrease across the network

If the request for bandwidth exceeds the amount of bandwidth available

What happens when the memory queue of a device fills up and new network traffic is received?
