Understanding Best Effort Traffic

Best Effort Traffic refers to a networking communication approach where data packets are delivered without guaranteed service quality levels, reliability, or prioritization. This means that the network will make an attempt to transmit the data, but it does not ensure factors like delivery speed, order, or error correction. Best Effort Traffic is commonly seen in scenarios where strict performance guarantees are not essential, such as general internet browsing or non-critical data transfers.
