AWS Certified Advanced Networking – Specialty (ANS-C00) — Question 41

You have been asked to monitor traffic flows on your Amazon EC2 instance. You will be performing deep packet inspection, looking for atypical patterns.
Which tool will enable you to look at this data?

Answer options

• A. Wireshark
• B. VPC Flow Logs
• C. AWS CLI
• D. CloudWatch Logs

Correct answer: A

Explanation

Wireshark is specifically designed for deep packet inspection, allowing you to analyze traffic at a granular level. In contrast, VPC Flow Logs provide network flow data but do not enable deep inspection, while AWS CLI and CloudWatch Logs focus more on command-line management and log data rather than packet analysis.
