What is RSVP?

RSVP (Resource Reservation Protocol) is a signaling protocol used in IP networks to request and reserve network resources for specific data flows. It enables applications to obtain a guaranteed level of service by reserving bandwidth along a network path. It's commonly used in applications like video conferencing and VoIP where consistent network performance is crucial.
