CompTIA Network+ (N10-007) — Question 75

Which of the following would indicate that a circuit speed should be increased?

Answer options

• A. Low latency
• B. Low bandwidth consumption
• C. High number of SIEM alerts
• D. High packet drops

Correct answer: D

Explanation

A high number of packet drops indicates that the circuit is unable to handle the current load, suggesting a need for increased speed to manage the traffic effectively. The other options do not directly relate to a requirement for higher circuit speed; low latency and bandwidth consumption typically indicate a well-performing circuit, while a high number of SIEM alerts could be due to various factors unrelated to circuit speed.
