A manufacturing company uses Dell SONiC switches. The team wants to limit FTP traffic (classified by destination port 21) to 50 Mbps. The FTP application is bursty and can tolerate some delay, but the team wants to avoid packet loss. Which QoS action should be applied?

Configure WRED with a threshold at 50 Mbps

Apply a policer that drops traffic above 50 Mbps

Set the queue to strict priority for FTP

Apply a shaper that buffers traffic above 50 Mbps

What is the primary purpose of implementing QoS in a Dell SONiC network?

To manage network traffic by prioritizing certain types of packets over others

To increase the physical bandwidth of switch ports

To encrypt traffic between switches and hosts

To replace the routing protocol used on the network

A financial trading firm uses Dell SONiC switches. The firm has a 1 Gbps uplink. Market data traffic (DSCP AF31) is latency-sensitive and must not be delayed, but it is also bursty. The firm wants to ensure that market data never exceeds 500 Mbps, but also wants to avoid packet loss for this traffic. Which QoS configuration should be used?

Apply strict priority to market data

Apply WRED with a threshold at 500 Mbps

Apply a policer to market data at 500 Mbps

Apply a shaper to market data at 500 Mbps
