AWS Certified Advanced Networking – Specialty (ANS-C00) — Question 262

What value in a packet dictates the priority of the packet in a QoS enabled network?

Answer options

• A. BFD
• B. IPv6
• C. NAT
• D. DSCP

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is DSCP, which stands for Differentiated Services Code Point, as it is specifically used to indicate the priority level of packets in a QoS framework. BFD, IPv6, and NAT do not serve the purpose of defining packet priority in a QoS-enabled environment.
