Network Quality of Service (QoS) implementations such as Diffserv and Intserv have focused on an end-to-end solution to providing alternative levels of service. Applications needing guaranteed bounds on qualities like throughput, delay, and packet loss were the target of such implementations. QoS can also be used to solve a different class of problem: that of network contention. There also exists a need for Quality of Service on edge links, where bandwidth is scarce. In a university setting, the network is serving the needs of both the mission of the university (teaching and research) as well as the residential life of its students, faculty, and staff. The traffic contending for limited network resources is caused by a mixture of work and pleasure. An effective Quality of Service system at a university should both prioritize traffic and apportion bandwidth to that traffic accordingly. Additionally, a complete Quality of Service solution will include network infrastructure as well as network policy. This thesis shows that using Class Based Weighted Fair Queuing can solve a link congestion problem, and describes a measurement system developed to determine the effectivness of the implementation.
