Final answer:

Queuing is another name for the quality of service (QoS) function known as Weighted Fair Queuing (WFQ).

The correct answer is d) Weighted Fair Queuing (WFQ).

Step-by-step explanation:

Queuing is a Quality of Service (QoS) function that allows packets to be stored in a queue and transmitted based on priority or a predetermined scheduling algorithm.

Weighted Fair Queuing (WFQ) is a specific queuing algorithm that assigns weights to different flows, allowing for fair sharing of the link capacity among the flows. In WFQ, higher-weighted flows get a larger share of the bandwidth.

The correct answer is d) Weighted Fair Queuing (WFQ).
