300-445 Question 15
Select 3An enterprise network team needs to monitor application performance and identify potential issues. They want to simulate user interactions with applications to proactively detect problems, collect telemetry data from devices in real-time, and execute scripts to validate network configurations. Which combination of agent types should they implement to meet these requirements?
- A
Synthetic user agent
- B
Scripting agent
- C
Local collection agent
- D
Packet capture agent
- E
Web application firewall agent
Show answer and explanation
Correct answers: A, B, C
Explanation
To address the team's requirements, a combination of synthetic user agents, scripting agents, and local collection agents is needed. Synthetic user agents simulate real-world user interactions to proactively identify application issues. Scripting agents can validate network configurations and automate assurance tasks. Local collection agents provide real-time telemetry data for network monitoring. While packet capture agents and web application firewall agents serve other purposes, they are not directly relevant to the needs described in the scenario.
- A. Correct.
Synthetic user agents simulate user interactions with applications, making them suitable for proactively detecting application performance issues.
- B. Correct.
Scripting agents are used to execute specific scripts for validating configurations or automating network assurance tasks, making them a good fit for the team's requirement to validate network configurations.
- C. Correct.
Local collection agents gather telemetry data from devices in real-time, helping to monitor the network and detect issues based on live metrics.
- D. Incorrect.
Packet capture agents are typically used for deep packet inspection and troubleshooting but are not essential for the described use case focused on proactive detection and telemetry monitoring.
- E. Incorrect.
Web application firewall agents are designed to protect web applications from malicious traffic but do not align with the described requirements for network assurance and monitoring.
