What is Quality Of Service (QOS)?
Quality of service models:
Best-effort service model
– the internet was initially based on a best-effort packet delivery service. Best-effort is the default mode for all traffic. There is no differentiation among types of traffic. The best-effort model is similar to using standard mail service – it will get there when it gets there.
Advantages of best-effort service model:
No special mechanisms required
Disadvantages of best-effort service model:
No service differentiation

What is Modular Quality of service CLI (MQC)?
What is Classification and marking? What are IP Precedence and DSCP Values? What is AF and EF?
What is of NBAR (network- based application recognition), classification QOS How to configure NBAR?
Integrated services (intserv model)
are a QoS model that is older than QOS / Differentiated services model. Intserv model defines a signaling process by which an individual flow can request that the network reserve the bandwidth and delay needed for the flow.
The integrated services model uses RSVP for reserving bandwidth. RSVP stands for a resource reservation protocol. RSVP is used for reserving bandwidth/QOS tools for a particular flow. Here is a limitation of intserv model if reserved no other traffic can use it and it is not scalable each flow required separate admin configuration on the router.
The differentiated services model
is designed to overcome the limitation of best-effort and intserv models. In Diffserv model network traffic is identified by classes and network QOS policy enforces differentiated treatment of traffic classes. You choose the level of service for each class.
Advantages of Differentiated service model
Many levels of quality are possible
Disadvantages of Differentiated service model:
No absolute service guarantee
