Information About Quality of Service

QoS lets you classify network traffic so that it can be policed and prioritized in a way that prevents
congestion. Traffic is processed based on how you classify it and the QoS policies that you put in place.
Classification, marking, and policing are the three main features of QoS.

Traffic Classification—Groups network traffic based on defined criteria.
Traffic Marking—Modifies traffic attributes such as DSCP, COS, and Precedence by class.
Policing —Monitors data rates and burst sizes for a particular class of traffic. QoS policing on a
network determines whether network traffic is within a specified profile (contract).
and Table 17-2 list the configuration limits for QoS.
