Voice and Video over IP are applications which make high demands on networks. Controlled delay, low jitter, and low losses have to be completed by assured bandwidth. In other words: the network has to provide an appropriate Quality of Service (QoS). This is the only way to guarantee high quality for the end user. The methods required for achieving this objective will be discussed thoroughly in this course. Having attended this course, you will understand in detail which functional network elements are required for a good QoS and how to implement them using the common technologies. Hands-on exercises and demonstrations at the test network will ensure a lasting learning success. You will, thus, be perfectly able to ensure optimum QoS in your own projects.

In this course of the ExperTeach Networking series, each student will receive the comprehensive ExperTeach course documentation.
Target Group
This course is optimally suited for students interested in concepts and design and also for participants with focus on technology. If you are aiming to understand the technical possibilities and interactions in the QoS environment, this course is precisely what you need.
Knowledge Prerequisites
A good knowledge of the TCP/IP protocol stack and of the Ethernet is mandatory. Sound basic knowledge about telephony and signaling is another prerequisite. Students should be fond of looking into technical details.
