A quick programming note, if you will, as we jump into this skill, we're about
to talk
about wireless QoS because when we look at the blueprint for this exam, that's
what's
next, and we want to try to stay in order with things.
But it does feel a little bit out of order to talk about wireless QoS before we
've
really drilled into the wireless concepts that are going to come later on in
the course.
Now, Encore is going to assume that we have a foundational understanding of
wireless.
If you feel like you need a refresher for wireless, don't worry, we've got you WEBVTT X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000
If you feel like you need a refresher for wireless, don't worry, we've got you
covered.
Go to the CCNA course and watch the wireless skills within that course, and you
should
have a really good foundation for both this skill and the skills moving forward
.
We also have way more wireless content here on CBT Nuggets if you want to go
even deeper
than that.
But for the sake of the Encore, we're going to want to make sure that we have a
little
bit of foundational knowledge about wireless before we jump into this skill and
the skills
to come.
But let's go ahead and jump in and now talk about wireless QoS.
Wireless is a fascinating technology. WEBVTT X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000
Wireless is a fascinating technology.
I absolutely love it.
And the quality of service conversations going to revolve around a couple of
aspects.
First of all, everything we've talked about up until now and making sure we can
do queuing
and tagging and such, but also recognizing that wireless is a little bit
different.
It's a half duplex technology.
And now we have to worry about the idea that it's not just me who's priorit
izing some of
my traffic over others of my traffic, but now if we have 30 machines all in the
same
space, how do I prioritize my high priority packets over other people's low WEBVTT X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000
space, how do I prioritize my high priority packets over other people's low
priority packets?
Pretty fascinating conversation.
So let's dive in.
