Cisco DQOS Exam Certification Guide

Cisco eBookThis is the eBook version of the printed book.


Cisco DQOS Exam Certification Guide

The official self-study test preparation guide for the Cisco DQOS 9E0-601 and QOS 642-641 exams

This official study guide helps you master all the topics on the DQOS exam, including:

* QoS concepts, tools, and architectures
* Classification and marking concepts and tools
* Queuing in Cisco routers and configuration of queuing tools
* Traffic policing and shaping in Cisco routers
* Configuration of congestion avoidance tools
* Configuration of link-efficiency tools
* Call admission control (CAC) tools for voice and video connections
* Cisco QoS management tools
* QoS design processes
* QoS on LAN switches

The Cisco IP Telephony Support, Design, and Operations Specialist focused certifications validate proficiency in designing, installing, and supporting a multiservice network solution. A solid understanding of quality-of-service (QoS) features and implementation is essential for all of the Cisco IP Telephony focused certifications and is also a core component of the CCIP(tm) certification.

Fault-Tolerant IP and MPLS Networks

Cisco eBookThis is the eBook version of the printed book.


Fault-Tolerant IP and MPLS Networks

Design and deploy high availability IP and MPLS network architectures with this comprehensive guide

* Includes a detailed overview of the IP/MPLS forwarding and control plane protocols, including OSPF, IS-IS, LDP, BGP, and RSVP
* Analyze fault-tolerant IP/MPLS control plane architectures with the explanations in this book
* Develop a clear understanding of various high availability aspects of IP/MPLS networks
* Learn how to seamlessly deploy IP/MPLS control plane restart mechanisms
* Master the application of fault-tolerant control-plane architectures in designing and deploying highly reliable and available MPLS applications, such as traffic engineering, L2VPNs, and L3VPNs
* Understand the layered architecture of network-level fault recovery mechanisms, such as optical, SONET, MPLS, and interactions between different layers

In the wake of increased traffic, today’s service providers and enterprises must assure high availability across a variety of networked services and applications. Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) is the enabling technology for the widespread deployment of IP networks in core and Metro Ethernet applications. Many service providers need to move their legacy Layer 2 and Layer 3 services onto converged MPLS and IP-enabled networks, but high availability is a prerequisite for offering profitable carrier-class services. Although most carrier-class routers do provide an adequate level of hardware redundancy, control-plane software is still vulnerable to and, in many cases, the cause of router failures.
