CompTIA SecurityX (CAS-005) — Question 30

Which of the following utilizes policies that route packets to ensure only specific types of traffic are being sent to the correct destination based on application usage?

Answer options

• A. SDN
• B. pcap
• C. vmstat
• D. DNSSEC
• E. VPC

Correct answer: A

Explanation

SDN (Software-Defined Networking) is designed to manage and control network traffic through policies that route packets based on the application requirements. The other options, such as pcap and vmstat, are tools for capturing and monitoring traffic, while DNSSEC provides security for DNS queries, and VPC is a service for creating virtual networks, none of which specifically focus on managing traffic routing based on application usage.
