Leon, The there are really two reasons why QoS does not work over the internet. 1. Is that rarely anyone configures a router to participate in QoS (QoS can and is supported at layer 2 and layer 3)... 2. In the event someone wants to participate in QoS, what standard do they use? What p-bit/ DSCP value means VoIP vs best effort Internet traffic? MPLS is not required, and its QoS is based on the MPLS provider and the customer agreeing on how the traffic will be marked (p-bit/DSCP/VLAN etc.) I have layer 2 and layer 3 networks using QoS (including MPLS cores)... Works great when the switch/router manufacturer implements it properly (this includes MPLS switches)... -Joe KA3NAM On 12/26/2011 10:29 AM, Leon Zetekoff wrote:
I always strived for good audio on my repeaters. But QOS does not work over the internet, only MPLS circuits. If you are going over the internet then you have to take what you get. (And I work in this field I now work for Windstream, ex-PAETEC in managed services)
