    Which flag in networking is used to ensure that data is immediately transmitted after it is received without buffering?
    Question



    Which flag in networking is used to ensure that data is immediately transmitted after it is received without buffering?

    A.

    SYN

    B.

    ACK

    C.

    PSH

    D.

    URG

    E.

    None of the above

    Correct option is C

    he PSH (Push) flag in the TCP header signals the receiver to push the received data to the application layer immediately without waiting to fill the buffer.
    Important Key Points:
    1. TCP Flags such as PSH, SYN, ACK, URG, FIN, and RST are part of the TCP header.
    2. The PSH flag ensures that time-sensitive data is processed by the receiver as soon as it arrives.
    3. It is commonly used in scenarios like interactive applications or real-time streaming.
    Knowledge Booster:
    · SYN: Used to initiate a connection in a three-way handshake.
    · ACK: Acknowledges receipt of data.
    · URG: Indicates that the data is urgent and should be prioritized.
    · RST: Resets the connection in case of an error.
