Understanding Hierarchical QoS

Hierarchical Quality of Service (QoS) is a networking technique that prioritizes and manages data traffic flow within a network infrastructure based on predefined policies. It involves organizing network devices into multiple levels or layers, each responsible for different traffic priorities and enforcement mechanisms. This hierarchical approach helps optimize network performance by ensuring that high-priority data packets receive preferential treatment over lower-priority packets, thereby enhancing overall network efficiency and responsiveness.
