The
following topics are general guidelines
for the content likely to be included
on the CIPT Specialist DQOS Exam 9E0-601. However,
other related topics may also appear on
any specific delivery of the exam (excerpts
from Cisco Certification web site).
1. QoS Overview
1.1. List five benefits for implementing
QoS in the Enterprise Networks
1.2. Describe how a converged network
behaves without QoS
1.3. Correctly describe the QoS framework
1.4. Describe correctly what Call Admission
Control does
1.5. Describe the difference between
Integrated Services and Differentiated
Services
2. Classification and Marking
2.1. Explain the reason for classification
and marking
2.2. Explain the difference between classification
and marking
2.3. Explain Class of Service, IP Precedence
and DiffServ Code Points
2.4. Configure QoS policy using Modular
QoS CLI
2.5. Explain the role of Network Based
Application Recognition (NBAR)
2.6. Classify and mark traffic
3. Congestion Management
3.1. Identify and differentiate between
the different IOS queuing techniques
3.2. Correctly apply each queuing technique
to the appropriate application
3.3. Describe the difference between
IP RTP Priority and Low Latency Queuing
(LLQ)
3.4. Configure WFQ, CBWFQ, and LLQ
4. Congestion Avoidance
4.1. Explain how TCP responds to congestion
4.2. Explain tail drop and global synchronization
4.3. Identify and differentiate between
the following IOS congestion avoidance
tools: RED, WRED, FRED
4.4. Configure IOS congestion avoidance
features
5. Link Efficiency Tools
5.1. Explain the need for link efficiency
tools
5.2. Explain available LFI techniques
including MLP Interleaving and FR Fragmentation
using FRF.11 Annex-C or FRF.12
5.3. Explain Real Time Protocol header
compression (CRTP) as a tool for improving
link efficiency
5.4. Configure and monitor various LFI
methods and CRTP
6. Policing and Shaping
6.1. Describe the difference between
policing and shaping and how each one
relates to QoS
6.2. Describe various mechanisms for
policing, when to apply each, and how
to configure them
6.3. Identify the various types of traffic
shaping, their differences, and how to
apply each
6.4. Configure the different types of
traffic shaping
7. Call Admission Control
7.1. Correctly list five local CAC methods
and their primary function.
7.2. Correctly list two measurement-based
CAC methods and their primary function.
7.3. Correctly describe IntServ/RSVP
and it's main function.
7.4. Given an enterprise network scenario,
correctly determine which method(s) of
achieving call admission control best
meets the customer requirements.
8. QoS Management Tools
8.1. Utilize QoS Device Manager to monitor
performance, establish baselines and
configure QoS policies
8.2. Utilize QoS Policy Manager to configure
advanced QoS policies, scale policy deployment,
upload/verify/roll-back policies, and
deploy QoS policies by external time-based/event-based
scripts
8.3. Configure Cisco Service Assurance
Agent to measure key SLA metrics and
monitor network performance between local
and remote devices
8.4. Monitor and troubleshoot network
performance with IPM and SMS
9. QoS Design
9.1. Design a converged multiservice
network to provide proper QoS for voice,
video and data traffic
