16
Q

An algorithm that involves buffering and forwarding of packets in the order of arrival

A

FIFO

17
Q

An algorithm that uses automated scheduling method that provides fair bandwidth allocation to all network traffic

A

Weighted Fair Queuing (WFQ)

18
Q

An algorithm that extends the standard WFQ functionality to provide support for user-defined traffic classses

A

Class-based WFQ

19
Q

An algorithm that uses strict priority queuing to CBWFQ which reduces jitter in vice conversations

A

LLQ

20
Q

Advantages of LLQ

A

Delay-sensitive data (voice) is sent first

21
Q

What are the 3 model types of implementing QoS ?

A
Best-effort
Integrated Services (IntServ)
Differentiated Services (DiffServ)
22
Q

QoS model that is less resource intensive and more scalable

A

DiffServ

23
Q

QoS model that provides the highest guarantee of QoS, but is resource-intensive

A

IntServ

24
Q

QoS model that treats all network packets the same way

A

Best-effort

25
Q

Benefits of Best-effort

A

Easiest and quickest model to deploy

Most scalable

26
Q

QoS model that uses resource reservation and an admission-control mechanism as building blocks to establish and maintain QoS

A

IntServ

27
Q
QoS model that enforces and applies QoS mechanisms on 
a hop-by-hop basis uniformly applying global meaning to each traffic class to provide both flexibility and scalability
A

DIffServ

28
Q

QoS model that divides network traffic into classes based on business requirements.

A

DiffServ

29
Q

3 Main categories from QoS implementation tools

A

Classification and marking tools
Congestion avoidance tools
Congestion management tools

30
Q

Ways to avoid packet loss

A

increase link capacity
Guarantee enough bandwidth
Drop lower-priority packets before congestion occurs

31
Q

A tool that monitors network traffic loads in an effort to anticipate and avoid congestion at common network bottlenecks before congestion becomes a problem

A

Congestion Avoidance

32
Q

What happens when an edge router using IntServ QoS determines that the data pathway cannot support the level of QoS requested?

A

Data is not forwarded along the pathway

33
Q

How many levels of priority are possible when using class of service (CoS) marking on frames?

A

8 (0-7)

34
Q

What is the default queuing method used on the LAN interfaces of Cisco devices?

A

FIFO

35
Q

Which QoS technology provides congestion avoidance by allowing TCP traffic to be throttled before buffers become full and tail drops occur?

A

weighted random early detection

36
Q

Which QoS technique retains excess packets in a separate queue for later transmission?

A

shaping
