So, what problem is QoS solving?
QoS is about choosing the packets that you are willing to drop or delay when congestion arises. If you aren't willing to drop/delay any of them, then you must over-provision. Regarding the existant thread, adding engineers and equipment will not give you more bandwidth, but instead it allows you to be more efficient in your packet disposal routines. They are not a substitue for pipe. -- Eric A. Hall http://www.ehsco.com/ Internet Core Protocols http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/coreprot/
