N10-005 · Question #760

When implementing video streaming from the Internet to an always on device, it is best to employ which of the following services to minimize latency issues?

The correct answer is A. QoS. Quality of Service (QoS) prioritizes time-sensitive traffic like video streams to minimize latency and jitter on a network.

Why each option

Quality of Service (QoS) prioritizes time-sensitive traffic like video streams to minimize latency and jitter on a network.

AQoSCorrect

QoS allows network administrators to classify and prioritize traffic types, ensuring that latency-sensitive data such as video streams receives preferential treatment over less time-critical traffic. This directly reduces buffering, jitter, and playback interruptions for always-on streaming devices.

BEIGRP

EIGRP is a Cisco routing protocol used for path selection between routers and does not directly manage per-flow traffic prioritization.

CPPTP

PPTP is a VPN tunneling protocol used for creating encrypted tunnels and has no traffic prioritization function.

DOSPF

OSPF is a link-state routing protocol for determining routing paths and does not prioritize specific traffic types.
