CompTIA Network+ (N10-008) — Question 448
An engineer is gathering data to determine the effectiveness of UPSs in use at remote retail locations. Which of the following statistics can the engineer use to determine the availability of the remote network equipment?
Answer options
- A. Uptime
- B. NetFlow baseline
- C. Review TTL stats
- D. Interface statistics
Correct answer: A
Explanation
Uptime is a key metric that indicates the amount of time the network equipment is operational and available, making it the best choice for determining availability. The other options, while useful for other analyses, do not directly measure the availability of the equipment in the same way that uptime does.
