This course describes RUCKUS SmartCast, the foundational quality of service (QoS) technology that inspects, classifies and schedules traffic. Traffic classification can occur as a result of analyzing the various aspects of incoming data.

Classification Includes:

* 802.1p priority levels

* VLAN ID

* ToS/DSCP values

* OSI Layer 2/Layer 3/Layer 4 filters
