CompTIA Network+ (N10-008) — Question 543

Which of the following would be used to filter web traffic based on content?

Answer options

• A. Proxy server
• B. Load balancer
• C. Media converter
• D. Access point

Correct answer: A

Explanation

A proxy server is specifically designed to filter web traffic based on its content, making it the correct choice. A load balancer distributes traffic evenly across servers, a media converter changes media formats, and an access point connects devices to a network, none of which are intended for content filtering.
