  • The ONT Hands-On Challenge
Video 1

Introduction to Quality of Service (QoS)

QoS is increasingly more important in today's network. In this Video we cover the basic use and deployment of QoS, and I will explain why it's important for transmitting different types of data in a timely fashion. This section is vital for passing the ONT and for use in real world networks.

  • What is QoS? Why do we use it?
  • Three Steps to a QoS Deployment
  • Delay Types (and the Network Admins who hate them)
  • QoS Model Comparison
Video 2

Queuing Methods

In this section, we will discuss the theory of the different types and uses, and I will demonstrate their use in the labs and hands on practice. Most of the methods are valuable for real world experience, but the section on Low Latency is very important to master for the ONT exam.

  • FIFO
  • Round-Robin and Weighted Round-Robin
  • Priority Queuing
  • Weighted Fair Queuing
  • Class-based WFQ
  • Low Latency Queuing
Video 3

Marking and Classifying Traffic

"I just passed my CCNA 640-802 primarily by studying your Cisco CCNA course. (Chris Bryant is awesome!)"
First off, I want to say that I have a library of your products and I absolutely love all of them.  I just passed my CCNA 640-802 primarily by studying your Cisco CCNA course. (Chris Bryant is awesome!).

I cannot say enough good things about the quality of your products. Thank you again.

"Buying your product has helped me understand more about Cisco products. I am more comfortable dealing with routers more than ever..."
I bought your Cisco CCNA course to expand my I.T. skills and to get certified. I'm also a repeat customer.

Buying your product has helped me understand more about Cisco products. I am more comfortable dealing with routers more than ever. Buying your CCNA product has greatly enhanced my overall  I.T. skills.

Before buying your product, my skills were limited to Microsoft Products. After taking your CCNA course, It gave me hands-on experience that I could not have received elsewhere. I can now say my I.T. skills not only covered Microsoft products, it also covers Cisco products which means better jobs and better salary.

Taking your CCNA course has also greatly enhanced my computer networking skills. I am now highly skilled in setting up LANS, VLANS and WANS.

I higly recommend your CCNA course to anyone. In fact, any Train Signal product I highly recommend. I have bought 5 or 6 courses from Train Signal already and I will continue to buy more products.

"I recently took the 640-802 exam and passed. I feel more confident working on Cisco network devices..."
I purchased the CCNA course because I wanted to study to pass the exam, and also to improve hands on skills. The instructions from Chris Bryant are excellent - I have been able to answer any subnetting or VLSM questions right the first time.

The material was presented in such as way as to provide real life scenarios of what happens in networks, and sometimes even the slightest omissions could result in problems.

I recently took the 640-802 exam and passed. I feel more confident working on Cisco network devices.  I received a bonus for passing the exam. I look forward to starting on 642-901 soon, and plan on trying Chris Bryant's video training.

Also, as I look forward to a Professional certification, particularly for CCVP I have yet to find sources that offer CD training. I would like to be notified when course material becomes available. Worth every penny.

"I'm confident that I will pass my CCNA exam with your CCNA Training..."
I like your delivery methods in that you can see straight away the output from the routers and switches. And I also like Chris's teaching method. Clear and concise and covers everything you need for Job, Exam success.

"...Chris Bryant’s style of teaching is so good that I have decided to seek my CCIE in the not too distant future..."
My boss is impressed with my desire to master networking at a high level. Even before passing my exam my boss is giving me network tasks to perform that will serve to solidify my CCNA training.

My confidence level handling network related issues at the desktop has improved profoundly. Lastly, Chris Bryant’s style of teaching is so good that I have decided to seek my CCIE in the not too distant future.

-Tom Walke
"Everyone has a different method/style of learning best. If learning via self-paced method, then I would highly recommend Train Signal’s Cisco CCNA material..."
The main reason I purchased the Cisco CCNA was for gaining/improving hands-on skills but also for preparing for certification for  the Cisco CCNA. I find your trainers and method of teaching to be effective in style and approach. I particularly like the fact that I can go back to individual modules to either brush up on something or learn something I may not have quite gotten the first time through.

I am currently studying for my CWNA exam of which I am using your TrainSignal material. I have not yet scheduled an exam time for the CCNA, however I have already benefited from this material. I found the section on IP Addressing to be good refresher. His method of explaining the ISO model I found to be well done as well. I am confident that it will help me achieve my goal towards the CCNA because it looks to have good coverage of the exam requirements, plus the trainer really does appear to know his stuff and explains it in an understandable way.

Everyone has a different method/style of learning best. If learning via self-paced method, then I would highly recommend TrainSignal’s Cisco CCNA material.

-Marlon Deerr
"I passed the CCNA test on the first shot..."
Your courses are very good and I wanted to learn networking. I am not a good reader and would much rather watch videos.

I am 60 years old and have a dead end job. At least I may have new networking skills that I may be able to market some day. I am taking the BSCI course from you and will go all the way to CCNP. I passed the CCNA test on the first shot. And will be taking the BSCI exam soon.

-James Brochu
There is absolutely no doubt in my mind that TrainSignal is the best IT training in the world (are you kidding me?). I cannot emphasize enough how valuable your training videos have been to me (and my family).
About four years ago I stumbled into the field of IT (with no prior experience whatsoever). Up until this point, I have basically trained myself by reading hundreds and hundreds of pages from books and documentation. Needless to say, this method takes a lot of time and committment. But the more I read, is the more I fell in love with the concepts of networking.

What's my point? You guys make the learning process (as it relates to networking) almost too damn easy! And for that I am freaking ectstatic. Just think about how much farther along I could have been, had I only known about TrainSignal from the beginning.

Chris Bryant: (I LOVE HIM). Not only is he a master of what he does, but also a master at teaching.

Whoever put this company and team together, is a genius. And whoever you are, kudos to you my friend. It will be interesting to read a profile about you.

TrainSignal is the networking enthusiast's best keep secret! Boot camps, and all of the other competition is garbage.

Sincerely,
-Sheldon Sharpe
