Question 40
After implementing a correction at a nationwide chain in Tokyo, engineers must verify that this original problem is resolved: A traffic analyzer needs conversations by source/destination IP and ports but the custom flow record does not match those keys. Which observed result BEST demonstrates success?
Explanation
Correct Answer
This is the observable outcome for flow record key fields. It tests whether the targeted change, 'Configure appropriate flow record match fields for the traffic dimensions being analyzed', actually resolved the reported issue at a nationwide chain in Tokyo. The original failure was: A traffic analyzer needs conversations by source/destination IP and ports but the custom flow record does not match those keys.
Incorrect Answers
That observation verifies ipfix export compatibility in a different situation, such as when an exporter uses an IPFIX collector but the router sends an incompatible or incorrectly configured NetFlow format. For the reported flow record key fields incident at a nationwide chain in Tokyo, the required acceptance evidence is: Exported records distinguish the intended conversations and counters reflect their traffic. This other result does not test that condition directly.
That observation verifies flexible netflow exporter target in a different situation, such as when a flow monitor collects records locally but the collector receives nothing because its exporter destination is wrong. For the reported flow record key fields incident at a nationwide chain in Tokyo, the required acceptance evidence is: Exported records distinguish the intended conversations and counters reflect their traffic. This other result does not test that condition directly.
That observation verifies flow monitor interface direction in a different situation, such as when netFlow statistics are empty for inbound traffic because the flow monitor was applied only in the outbound direction. For the reported flow record key fields incident at a nationwide chain in Tokyo, the required acceptance evidence is: Exported records distinguish the intended conversations and counters reflect their traffic. This other result does not test that condition directly.
