  • Page 119: Network - Qos

    Network – QoS Quality of Service (QoS) provides the means to guarantee a certain level of a specified resource to selected traffic on an IP network. Quality can be defined as e.g. a maintained level of bandwidth, low latency, no packet losses, etc. Figure 69.

  • Page 120: Language

    The main benefits of a QoS-aware network can be summarized as: - The ability to prioritize traffic and thus allow critical flows to be served before flows with lesser priority. - Greater reliability in the network, thanks to the control of the amount of bandwidth an application may use, and thus control over bandwidth races between applications.
