SolarWinds Hybrid Cloud Observability – Network Monitoring — Question 6

Which two of the following effects would apply to a situation where a NetPath probe polling interval is increased to 15 minutes from the default value of 10 minutes? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. accuracy is decreased
• B. accuracy is increased
• C. probe is more likely to show all routes
• D. probe will not complete successfully

Correct answer: A, C

Explanation

Increasing the polling interval to 15 minutes can lead to decreased accuracy as it may miss transient issues that occur within shorter intervals. Additionally, with a longer interval, the probe is more likely to capture all routes since it has more time to collect data, confirming option C as correct.
