CompTIA DataX (CNX-001) — Question 42

A cloud network engineer needs to enable network flow analysis in the VPC so headers and payload of captured data can be inspected. Which of the following should the engineer use for this task?

Answer options

• A. Application monitoring
• B. Syslog service
• C. Traffic mirroring
• D. Network flows

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, Traffic mirroring, as it allows for the copying of network traffic for analysis, enabling inspection of headers and payloads. Options A and B do not directly relate to capturing and analyzing network traffic, while D refers to general network flows rather than the specific capability needed for in-depth inspection.
