K-12 - QOS with PARCC Testing

[bbilut]

Has anyone looked into doing any QOS for the PARCC assesment testing? Right now I'm not doing any QOS on our 5050, but think it would be a good idea to do something so the testing gets priority over some staff member watching Netflix during their break period.

Hi Brad,

Qos is a nice stuff in palo. Just keep in mind that QoS:

   - Must be assign on palo's interface for outgoing traffic (Lan interface for Video)

   - Have no interest for UDP traffic (congestion already happen)

   - Rules have to be defined per subnet / Group ... Share bandwisth per user is not possible (or one rule per user :-()

But it can be ver interesting for having bandwisth real time graph per app / User / CoS

Hope help.

We have a fairly large MPLS network with around 200 sites.  Our LANs/WANs all have the appropriate trusts and markings already set up, so we mark in scavenger class specific URL categories.  We haven't yet gone into marking specific applications yet.
