    answer D

    ETS controls bandwidth utilization. In this example, the FCoE traffic (802.1p = 3)
    shall be mapped to ETS queue 1, and have 60% of the bandwidth reserved
    (during times of congestion). All other traffic (802.1p = 0-2, 4-7) shall be mapped to
    ETS queue 0, and have access to 40% of the bandwidth
