Which Quality of Service (QoS) mechanism delays packets to conform to a specified data rate, smoothing out traffic bursts to prevent congestion?
Policing
Congestion avoidance
Traffic shaping
Queuing
Traffic shaping delays packets using buffers to match a desired traffic profile, effectively smoothing out bursts and ensuring steady flow. This helps prevent congestion on the network by controlling the rate at which packets are sent. Policing monitors the data rate and can drop or mark packets that exceed the limit without delaying them. Congestion avoidance techniques predict congestion before it happens, and queuing manages packet processing order, but neither specifically delays packets to conform to a data rate.
