Implementing and Operating Cisco Service Provider Network Core Technologies (SPCOR) — Question 83

An engineer needs to implement QOS mechanism on customer's network as some applications going over the Internet are slower than others. Which two actions must the engineer perform when implementing traffic shaping on the network in order to accomplish this task? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. Implement packet remarking for excess traffic
• B. Configure a queue with sufficient memory to buffer excess packets
• C. Implement a scheduling function to handle delayed packets
• D. Configure the token values in bytes
• E. Configure a threshold over which excess packets are discarded

Correct answer: B, C

Explanation

Options B and C are correct because configuring a queue with sufficient memory allows for buffering excess packets, and implementing a scheduling function effectively manages delayed packets. Options A, D, and E do not directly contribute to traffic shaping in the context of prioritizing and managing application performance.
