Juniper Junos Class of Service

This two-day course provides students with advanced class-of-service (CoS) knowledge and configuration examples. The course begins with an overview of CoS before going into classification, policing, scheduling, and rewriting. The course then covers class-based forwarding and finishes with a case study. This course is based on the Junos operating system Release 11.4R1.14. Through demonstrations and hands-on labs, you will gain experience in configuring and verifying Junos CoS features.
