Quality of Service (QoS) in Networking
🌟 What is Quality of Service (QoS)? QoS refers to a network’s ability to provide predictable service quality — essential for real-time and critical applications (VoIP, video streaming, online gaming). It focuses on managing network resources to meet performance requirements. 📏 Key QoS Metrics Bandwidth – Data transfer capacity of the network. Delay (Latency) – Time for a packet to reach the destination. Jitter – Variation in delay; critical for media quality. Packet Loss – Percentage of packets that fail to reach destination. 🛠 Mechanisms to Ensure QoS Traffic Classification and Prioritization ...
