CompTIA Network+ (N10-008) — Question 811
A user from a remote office is reporting slow file transfers. Which of the following tools will an engineer MOST likely use to get detailed measurement data?
Answer options
- A. Packet capture
- B. iPerf
- C. NetFlow analyzer
- D. Internet speed test
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is B, iPerf, as it is specifically designed to measure network performance and bandwidth. While Packet capture and NetFlow analyzer provide insights into traffic, they do not focus solely on measuring throughput. An Internet speed test may not provide the detailed metrics needed for a specific file transfer issue.
