Nexus 5000 QoS – Keeping It Classless Labs

Excerpt: I’m pleased to revive the KIC LABS series with a video on Cisco MQC-style QoS on the Nexus 5000. PLEASE read these two articles first, as they do a lot better job at explaining the structure that we’re going to be putting together in the video. Unfortunately I was not able to provide this during the video, as I was pressed for time. http://keepingitclassless.net/2012/11/cisco-quality-of-service-part-1-types-of-qos-policies/ http://keepingitclassless.net/2012/11/qos-part-2-qos-and-jumbo-frames-on-nexus-ucs-and-vmware/ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eSdybCEIs94 Download the configuration used in this video here.

Keeping It Classless Labs – Static Routing

This is the first in what I hope to be a useful series on configuration/walk through videos aimed at educating up-and-coming networking professionals on some of the more fundamental concepts. Today we’ll be looking at static routing and how to configure it in a small Cisco network. Below are the lab files (GNS3) and the videos themselves.
