What is the name of the feature that is used by Metro Ethernet service providers to ensure that traffic received from a customer doesn't extend beyond the contracted rate?

A) Policing
B) Shaping
C) Traffic Enforcer
D) Buffer Engine


A
Explanation: A) Traditionally, Metro Ethernet service providers will prevent customers from sending traffic at a rate higher than the contracted rate by implementing a traffic policer. To prevent their traffic from being dropped, Metro Ethernet customers can implement a traffic shaper at the connection point to the service provider to shape their traffic to fit the contracted rate.
