  • Author: Matthew Demyttenaere, Sophie Legault
Data services are making a significant shift towards supporting a variety of applications on the same network. This shift has fuelled the need for quality of service (QoS) to ensure the condition and reliability of services. Service providers need to assign different qualities of service to each type of service they offer. For example, most often, real-time applications such as video and voice are assigned the highest priority. Critical data applications frequently take second place followed by email and web browsing. Different mechanisms exist to deploy QoS, and this creates the need to properly test the network configuration. This application note discusses the importance of QoS and offers QoS testing methods when activating data services.
