A QoS (Quality of Service) Policy refers to a set of rules implemented on a network to prioritize certain types of traffic over others to ensure performance and resiliency based on specified criteria such as bandwidth, latency, and packet loss.
QoS Policy Definition: A QoS (Quality of Service) Policy refers to a set of rules implemented on a network to prioritize certain types of traffic over others to ensure performance and resiliency based on specified criteria such as bandwidth, latency, and packet loss.
QoS Policy, also known as Quality of Service Policy, is a set of rules and configurations that define and prioritize network traffic to ensure the necessary level of service quality. This policy determines how network resources are allocated, managed, and controlled to meet predefined performance criteria such as bandwidth, latency, and reliability for different types of data traffic. By establishing priorities and applying QoS policies, organizations can optimize network performance, enhance user experience, and ensure critical applications receive the required level of service.
