CompTIA Network+ (N10-008) — Question 326
All packets arriving at an interface need to be fully analyzed. Which of the following features should be used to enable monitoring of the packets?
Answer options
- A. LACP
- B. Flow control
- C. Port mirroring
- D. NetFlow exporter
Correct answer: C
Explanation
Port mirroring is the correct choice because it allows for the duplication of packets from one port or VLAN to another for monitoring purposes. LACP is used for link aggregation, Flow control manages data flow between devices, and NetFlow exporter is focused on exporting flow data rather than mirroring packets for detailed analysis.
