QoS best practices include: setting clear performance objectives, designing a comprehensive QoS policy, monitoring and measuring performance, implementing traffic shaping and/or traffic policing, enforcing user-based QoS rules, and taking proactive measures to ensure adequate bandwidth. Additionally, ensuring that the network architecture is properly configured and optimized for QoS, and that the network is regularly tested and maintained, is paramount to maintaining a successful QoS implementation.
QoS best practices include:
1. Implementing a hierarchical QoS architecture that allows for granular control and efficient utilization of network resources.
2. Establishing clear policies regarding bandwidth and prioritization of applications, users, and traffic types.
3. Applying QoS Markings (DSCP, CoS, 802. 1p) to the appropriate traffic and ensuring these markings are not overridden by the network infrastructure.
4. Monitoring the network for traffic performance and compliance with the established policies.
5. Analyzing traffic patterns on an ongoing basis in order to identify high–usage applications and users in order to adjust the QoS parameters accordingly.
6. Utilizing advanced QoS features such as Traffic Shaping, Rate Limiting, and Packet Prioritization to better manage network congestion and prioritize mission–critical applications.
