Resource Reservation Protocol

The Resource Reservation Protocol (RSVP) is a network communication protocol that helps manage internet traffic to ensure that certain applications, like video calls or streaming services, receive the necessary bandwidth for smooth performance. It allows devices on a network to request and reserve specific amounts of resources, ensuring consistent quality of service, especially during high traffic times. By enabling these reservations, RSVP helps prioritize important data, reducing delays and interruptions, which enhances the overall user experience for time-sensitive applications.
