Traffic prioritization
Suggested answer: A

Explanation:

Traffic shaping is a bandwidth management technique that uses buffers at the client side toprevent TCP retransmissions from occurring when the ISP starts to drop packets of specifictypes that exceed the agreed traffic rate. Traffic shaping delays or queues packets that exceedthe traffic rate, instead of dropping them, and sends them later when the traffic rate is lower.This reduces the number of TCP retransmissions and improves the overall networkperformance. Traffic shaping can also prioritize packets based on their type, source,destination, or other criteria.Reference:Routing Technologies and Bandwidth Management |Foundation Topics | Pearson IT Certification,CompTIA Network+ Certification Exam Objectives
