Suppose that the output port has enough buffer space for only three packets, including the packet being transmitted $($in practice, routers have a lot more buffer space!$).$ What happens to packet $4$ in the example above, when it arrives to find the output buffers full?

$$

Group of answer choices

Packet $4$ is held in the switch fabric and released to the output port when there is free buffer space.

Packet $4$ is dropped or a queued packet is dropped from the buffer to make space for packet $4.$

Packet $4$ is recirculated back to input port and buffered there.
