Question 660

A post-incident design review discusses the following: During a predeployment review for a high-volume retail campus, the team discovers this design gap: an application marks traffic correctly at the LAN edge but a WAN provider rewrites all DSCP values. An approval gate requires both a measurable acceptance check and a durable prevention control. Which preventive design control MOST DIRECTLY addresses this specific risk?

  1. Specify trusted and untrusted marking boundaries in the QoS design.
  2. Document service class allocations and retest after link-rate changes.
  3. Instrument congestion counters and test representative burst profiles before acceptance.
  4. Use provider class mapping tables and test end-to-end during new circuit acceptance. Apply the same control to the high-volume retail campus rollout checklist.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Use provider class mapping tables and test end-to-end during new circuit acceptance. Apply the same control to the high-volume retail campus rollout checklist. This control targets the underlying design risk. End-to-end QoS behavior depends on consistent class mapping across each administrative transport domain. The follow-up acceptance check remains: The intended markings or provider classes are visible on both sides of the WAN demarcation. The high-volume retail campus acceptance record also captures this result.

Incorrect Answers

A:

An untrusted endpoint can mark arbitrary DSCP values unless network policy validates and normalizes them. The repeat risk here is different: End-to-end QoS behavior depends on consistent class mapping across each administrative transport domain. A directly relevant preventive control is: Use provider class mapping tables and test end-to-end during new circuit acceptance. Apply the same control to the high-volume retail campus rollout checklist.

B:

CBWFQ reserves proportional service opportunity for classes under congestion without assigning every flow an absolute priority queue. The repeat risk here is different: End-to-end QoS behavior depends on consistent class mapping across each administrative transport domain. A directly relevant preventive control is: Use provider class mapping tables and test end-to-end during new circuit acceptance. Apply the same control to the high-volume retail campus rollout checklist.

C:

Average bandwidth below circuit capacity does not prevent short congestion intervals from filling queues. The repeat risk here is different: End-to-end QoS behavior depends on consistent class mapping across each administrative transport domain. A directly relevant preventive control is: Use provider class mapping tables and test end-to-end during new circuit acceptance. Apply the same control to the high-volume retail campus rollout checklist.

Question 661

During a network design workshop, the team finds this issue: A 100-Mbps customer handoff feeds a contracted 40-Mbps provider service and bursts are being dropped upstream. Which action MOST DIRECTLY meets the stated design requirement?

  1. Size buffers and apply shaping, scheduling and monitoring for peak bursts at the actual bottleneck link.
  2. Shape outbound traffic to a sustainable rate near the provider’s committed rate before the bottleneck.
  3. Classify and remark traffic at a trusted access or distribution boundary rather than trusting all endpoint tags.
  4. Use class-based weighted fair queuing with planned per-class bandwidth allocations.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Shape outbound traffic to a sustainable rate near the provider’s committed rate before the bottleneck. This action addresses the stated design problem. Traffic shaping buffers and schedules excess packets to smooth bursts instead of immediately discarding all excess. A practical confirmation is: Provider policer drops decrease and application throughput settles near the planned service rate.

Question 662

In a technical design review: A 100-Mbps customer handoff feeds a contracted 40-Mbps provider service and bursts are being dropped upstream. Which technical principle BEST explains the design decision?

  1. CBWFQ reserves proportional service opportunity for classes under congestion without assigning every flow an absolute priority queue.
  2. A priority queue reduces latency for a tightly controlled real-time class but must be bounded to avoid starving others.
  3. Traffic shaping buffers and schedules excess packets to smooth bursts instead of immediately discarding all excess.
  4. Average bandwidth below circuit capacity does not prevent short congestion intervals from filling queues.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

Traffic shaping buffers and schedules excess packets to smooth bursts instead of immediately discarding all excess. The correct engineering response is: Shape outbound traffic to a sustainable rate near the provider’s committed rate before the bottleneck. The observable check is: Provider policer drops decrease and application throughput settles near the planned service rate.

Incorrect Answers

Question 663

An engineering reviewer needs objective proof for the following: A 100-Mbps customer handoff feeds a contracted 40-Mbps provider service and bursts are being dropped upstream. Which acceptance observation BEST establishes the intended result?

  1. Congestion tests show each class receives at least its configured effective share where the scheduler applies.
  2. Peak-period loss, queue occupancy and jitter meet requirements after the policy change.
  3. Traffic captures show unauthorized high-priority markings rewritten before reaching congestion points.
  4. Provider policer drops decrease and application throughput settles near the planned service rate.

Question 664

The change advisory board sees a repeat risk in this case: A 100-Mbps customer handoff feeds a contracted 40-Mbps provider service and bursts are being dropped upstream. Which preventive design control MOST DIRECTLY addresses this specific risk?

  1. Align shaping rates with provider CIR and include encapsulation overhead during capacity planning.
  2. Enforce priority admission limits and authenticate high-priority marking sources.
  3. Instrument congestion counters and test representative burst profiles before acceptance.
  4. Tune early-drop thresholds from actual queue statistics rather than default assumptions.
