Quality of Service (QoS) is a set of intelligent network protocols and services
used to efficiently manage the movement of information through local and
wide-area networks. QoS allows Security Administrators to prioritize traffic
flows and provide better service to certain flows. Check Point QoS is included
in every NGX product installation.
Objectives
Given a variety of Check Point QoS configurations, determine how to allocate
bandwidth:
1. Determine if Check Point QoS is an appropriate solution, given a variety of
business scenarios.
2. Configure Check Point QoS to meet the requirements, given a variety of
business requirements.
3. Determine how bandwidth will be allocated, given a variety of Check Point
QoS configurations.
4. Identify situations where Low Latency Queueing and Differentiated
Services are an appropriate part of a QoS solution.
