Re: Blueprint: 8.60 Implement Cisco AutoQoS

This is an interesting topic inclusion in that many candidates look at
it and think "jeez - I hope I get AutoQoS - you talk about EASY points"!

CAUTION! The proctors love to get creative when it comes to a topic
like this. It reminds me a lot of DHCP. A very tempting topic to
overlook when studying that can really bite you when they get creative
in the lab. Reading the requirements carefully will certainly end up
being key to ensure you are doing this right (as you allude to).

Here are some other things to think about on this topic:
  - For Core Knowledge, Troubleshooting, and Configuration - Cisco
could make the requirements for the configuration rear their head.
Notice if you want to configure AutoQoS for Frame Relay, you have to
do it "just so" or you get nothing.
- In the Configuration section (or Troubleshooting), it would
obviously be fun to have a student configure AutoQoS, then modify the
resulting config to meet certain parameters. This is pretty "real
world" after all.
- For the Core Knowledge section especially, do not forget about
AutoQoS for Enterprise.
