SNCF — Securing Networks with Firepower — Question 8

What is the benefit of selecting the trace option for packet capture?

Answer options

• A. The option indicates whether the packet was dropped or successful.
• B. The option indicates whether the destination host responds through a different path.
• C. The option limits the number of packets that are captured.
• D. The option captures details of each packet.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer, A, is accurate because the trace option specifically reveals whether packets were successfully received or dropped, which is essential for diagnosing network issues. Options B and C are incorrect as they refer to different functionalities, while option D suggests capturing details rather than success status, which is not the primary function of the trace option.
