Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
An App-ID override.
Why it's wrong here
App-ID override disables App-ID detection, it is not for QoS.
- ✓
A QoS profile with a specific class and priority.
Why this is correct
QoS profiles define how traffic is treated after classification.
- ✗
A Security policy with a QoS tag.
Why it's wrong here
QoS is handled by dedicated QoS policies, not Security policies.
- ✗
A Traffic Shaping policy.
Why it's wrong here
Traffic shaping is a function of the QoS policy itself, not a separate policy type.
