Why each option

To guarantee bandwidth for applications and allow them to request specific delay requirements, the engineer must select the IntServ QoS model with RSVP.

ADiffserv with RSVP

Diffserv (Differentiated Services) is a class-based QoS model offering relative priorities, not explicit per-flow guarantees, making its combination with the IntServ-specific RSVP protocol incoherent.

BDiffserv with DSCP

Diffserv with DSCP (Differentiated Services Code Point) provides class-based QoS without explicit end-to-end guarantees or mechanisms for applications to request specific service types.

CIntServ with DSCP

IntServ is associated with RSVP for signaling, not DSCP, which is the classification mechanism for the Diffserv model.

DIntServ with RSVPCorrect

The Integrated Services (IntServ) QoS model is designed to provide strict, end-to-end quality-of-service guarantees for individual application flows. It utilizes the Resource Reservation Protocol (RSVP) as its signaling mechanism, allowing applications to explicitly reserve network resources like bandwidth and specify delay constraints to meet their particular service requirements.
