True or false? Quality of service (QoS) is a suite of technologies that allows you to strategically optimize network performance for select traffic types. For example, in today's converged networks (that is, networks simultaneously transporting voice, video, and

data), some applications (for example, voice) might be more intolerant of delay (that is, latency) than other applications (for example, an FTP file transfer is less latency sensitive than a Voice over IP [VoIP] call). Fortunately, through the use of QoS

technologies, you can identify which traffic types need to be sent first, how much bandwidth to allocate to various traffic types, which traffic types should be dropped first in the event of congestion, and how to make the most efficient use of the relatively limited bandwidth of an IP WAN.
