CompTIA Network+ (N10-007) — Question 680
A network administrator is investigating an issue with VoIP calls that are not establishing properly. After troubleshooting, the administrator is able to determine the
SIP responses are not being received by the gateway. Which of the following did the administrator use to determine this information?
Answer options
- A. netstat
- B. A spectrum analyzer
- C. tracert
- D. A packet analyzer
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is D, a packet analyzer, as it allows the administrator to capture and analyze network traffic, showing whether SIP responses are being sent and received. Option A, netstat, provides information about network connections but does not capture traffic. Option B, a spectrum analyzer, is used for analyzing signals, not packet data. Option C, tracert, is useful for tracing the route packets take but does not provide detailed insight into the actual packet contents.
